Memory trick · Prashant Sir

इसे em + bezzle + ment पढ़िए, बीच में double z है। Embezzlement साधारण चोरी नहीं है — भरोसे पर सौंपा गया पैसा हड़पना है, जैसे cashier का office के पैसे चुपके से निकाल लेना।

Read it as EM + BEZZLE + MENT, with a double z in the middle. Embezzlement is not ordinary theft: it is stealing money that was placed in your trust, like a cashier secretly taking money from the office account.
