Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Honour में H silent है, आवाज़ आती है 'on-our'। सोचिए — जिसे हम सम्मान से 'on our' कंधों पर उठा लेते हैं। Honour यानी ऊँचा सम्मान; कोई award भी honour कहलाता है।

The H in HONOUR is silent, so it sounds like 'on-our'. Picture a person we lift 'on our' shoulders to show respect. Honour is high respect, and a medal or award is an honour too.

Exam note

Antonym में dishonour, disgrace, shame आते हैं। Verb में इसका अर्थ सम्मान देना या वादा निभाना ('honour a commitment')।

Dishonour, disgrace and shame are the antonyms usually offered. As a verb it means to respect or to keep a promise ('honour a commitment').
