Memory trick · Prashant Sir
Foolish, selfish जैसे शब्दों के -ish में शिकायत छिपी है। Childish भी वैसा ही है — बड़ा होकर भी बचकानी, नासमझ हरकत। यह आलोचना है, तारीफ़ नहीं।
Words like 'foolish' and 'selfish' end in -ish and carry a complaint. CHILDISH is the same: a grown-up behaving in a silly, immature way. It is a criticism, never praise.
Exam note
Synonym में immature, puerile, juvenile और antonym में mature, adult आते हैं। इसे childlike से मत मिलाइए।
Immature, puerile and juvenile appear as synonyms; mature and adult as antonyms. Do not confuse it with childlike.
