Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Con = साथ और greg = झुंड, वही greg जो gregarious (झुंड में रहना पसंद करने वाला) में है। जब बहुत से लोग, ख़ासकर पूजा के लिए, साथ इकट्ठे हों तो congregation। इसे conflagration (भीषण आग) और constellation (तारामंडल) के साथ याद रखिए।

Con means together and greg means flock, the same greg as in gregarious (one who likes to be in a group). When many people flock together, especially for worship, it is a congregation. Learn it with conflagration (a large fire) and constellation (a group of stars).

Exam note

Group names में पूछा जाता है: congregation (उपासक), flock (भेड़ें), swarm (मधुमक्खियाँ), throng (भीड़), quorum। Conflagration और constellation भी साथ आते हैं।
