Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Contemporary में tempor (समय) देखिए, वही जो temporary में है। Con (साथ) + tempor (समय) = एक ही समय के लोग या चीज़ें। आज इसका अर्थ modern, यानी हमारे समय का, भी है।

See tempor (time) inside CONTEMPORARY, the same as in temporary. Con (together) + tempor (time): people or things that belong to the same time. Today it also means modern, belonging to our own time.

Exam note

इसके दो अर्थ हैं, समकालीन और आधुनिक; context तय करता है। Modern और current synonyms हैं; ancient और obsolete उल्टे।

It carries two senses, belonging to the same period and modern; the context decides. Modern and current are synonyms; ancient and obsolete are the opposite.
