Convalescence में val देखिए, वही जो valid और valour में है; val = ताक़त। Convalescence वह समय है जब बीमारी के बाद ताक़त धीरे-धीरे लौटती है, एक दिन में नहीं।

See val, as in valid and valour, inside CONVALESCENCE: val is about strength. Convalescence is the period when strength slowly returns after an illness, step by step, not in a single day.

Exam note

Recovery की अवधि convalescence; ठीक होता व्यक्ति convalescent। बीच का 'sc' adolescence की तरह याद रखिए; relapse उल्टा भाव है।

The period of recovery is convalescence; the person recovering is a convalescent. Note the 'sc' in the middle, as in adolescence; relapse is the opposite idea.
