Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Famous में fame साफ़ दिखता है: बहुत लोगों को ज्ञात, प्रसिद्ध। Infamous से सावधान: यह famous का सीधा उल्टा नहीं, बल्कि बुरे कारणों से प्रसिद्ध, यानी बदनाम।

Famous clearly contains fame: known to many people. Be careful with infamous: it is not simply the opposite of famous, it means famous for bad reasons.

Exam note

Options में synonym renowned, eminent, celebrated, illustrious; असली antonym obscure, unknown, जबकि notorious/infamous = बुरे कारणों से प्रसिद्ध।

Synonyms offered are renowned, eminent, celebrated and illustrious; the true antonyms are obscure and unknown, while notorious and infamous mean well known for bad reasons.
