Defile में file सुनिए। किसी ज़रूरी और साफ़ file को कीचड़ भरे हाथों से छू दिया, तो file गंदी हो गई — यही defile है। इसका उल्टा purify और sanctify है।

Hear 'file' in DEFILE. Picture someone touching a clean, important file with muddy hands: the file is defiled, no longer pure. Its opposites are purify and sanctify.
