Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Leap का मतलब छलाँग और bound का मतलब उछाल। एक-एक छलाँग में बहुत आगे निकल जाना — 'दिन दूनी रात चौगुनी' वाली बात। By leaps and bounds = rapidly, swiftly।

A leap is a long jump and a bound is a big spring forward. Moving by leaps and bounds is moving very fast, as we say in Hindi 'दिन दूनी रात चौगुनी'. So by leaps and bounds means swiftly or rapidly.
