Memory trick · Prashant Sir
Cruel की आवाज़ हिंदी के 'क्रूर' जैसी है — मतलब भी वही। Cruel व्यक्ति जानबूझकर दूसरों को दुख देता है। उल्टा kind, compassionate है।
CRUEL sounds just like the Hindi 'kroor' (merciless). A cruel person causes pain or suffering to others on purpose. The opposite is kind or compassionate.
