Memory trick · Prashant Sir

जब memory को किताब में लिख दो, तो वह memoir बनता है। Autobiography = अपनी पूरी life, biography = किसी और की लिखी।

When you write what is in your MEMORY into a book, it becomes a MEMOIR. An autobiography covers your whole life; a biography is written by someone else.

Exam note

Memoir, autobiography और biography साथ पूछे जाते हैं; memoir जीवन के कुछ हिस्सों की यादें है।

SSC asks memoir, autobiography and biography together: a memoir records personal memories of a part of life, an autobiography the whole life, a biography is by another writer.
