Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Lead (लीड) को leader से जोड़िए — जो सबसे आगे हो। Race में lead लेना यानी सबसे आगे होना। यही spelling 'लेड' बोली जाए तो धातु सीसा — old lead pipes।

LEAD pronounced 'leed' is connected with the LEADER — the one who is ahead of everyone. To take the lead in a race is to be in front. The same spelling pronounced 'led' is the metal (सीसा), as in old lead pipes.

Exam note

Lead (लीड) = नेतृत्व या पहली स्थिति; lead (लेड) = धातु सीसा। Metal वाला अर्थ exam में आ चुका है, वाक्य ध्यान से पढ़िए।

Lead (leed) means guidance or the first position; lead (led) is the metal. Exams have asked the metal sense, so read the sentence carefully.
