Curious की शुरुआत में 'क्यू' सुनिए — curious बच्चा बार-बार 'क्यों? क्यों?' पूछता है, क्योंकि उसे जानना है। Curious यानी जिज्ञासु। उल्टा uninterested, apathetic है।

Hear 'kyu' (why) at the start of CURIOUS: a curious child keeps asking 'kyun? kyun?' because they want to know. Curious means eager to know or learn. The opposite is uninterested or apathetic.
