Cease में ceasefire सुनिए: ceasefire होते ही गोलीबारी रुक जाती है। Cease यानी रुकना; एक जैसी आवाज़ वाला seize यानी पकड़ लेना, जैसे police goods seize करती है। Cease का उल्टा start, commence और resume है।

Hear 'ceasefire' in cease: when a ceasefire is declared, the firing stops. Cease means to stop; seize, which sounds the same, means to grab, as when police seize goods. Its opposites are start, commence and resume.

Exam note

Antonym के रूप में restart, start, commence, begin, persist और resume आते हैं; stop, halt और desist synonym हैं। Cease/seize का जोड़ा आम जाल है।

The antonyms offered are restart, start, commence, begin, persist and resume; stop, halt and desist are synonyms. The cease/seize pair is a common trap.
