Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Industry सोचिए जहाँ मशीनें और मज़दूर दिन-रात काम करते हैं; उतनी ही मेहनत करने वाला industrious। इसका परिवार साथ रखिए: diligent, laborious (labour), assiduous — सब मेहनती।

Picture an INDUSTRY, where machines and workers run day and night. A person who works that hard is INDUSTRIOUS. Keep its family together: diligent, laborious (labour) and assiduous all mean hard-working.

Exam note

Industrious यानी मेहनती, industrial यानी उद्योग से जुड़ा — यह pair SSC trap बनाता है। Indolent, lazy antonym हैं।

Industrious means hard-working, industrial means related to industry; SSC uses this pair as a trap. Indolent and lazy are its antonyms.
