Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Encourage के अंदर courage है, और courage का 'cour' दिल से जुड़ा है। 'En' दिल में हिम्मत भरता है, और discourage का 'dis' उसे निकाल देता है।

COURAGE sits inside ENCOURAGE, and the 'cour' of courage is linked with the heart. 'En' puts courage into someone's heart, while 'dis' in discourage takes it out.
