Flimsy याद रखने के लिए इसे film से जोड़िए — एकदम पतली परत। Film जैसी पतली चीज़ ज़रा-से दबाव में फट जाती है, और flimsy excuse पहले ही सवाल पर गिर जाता है। Sturdy इसका उल्टा है।

To remember FLIMSY, link it with FILM, a very thin sheet. Something as thin as a film tears at the slightest pressure, and a flimsy excuse collapses at the first question. Sturdy is its opposite.
