Fallacious की शुरुआत fall से है। जो तर्क ग़लत reasoning के कारण fall हो जाए, गिर जाए, वह fallacious यानी भ्रामक; उल्टा sound।

FALLACIOUS begins with 'fall'. An argument that falls down because its reasoning is mistaken is fallacious; a fallacy is that mistake, and a sound argument is its opposite.
