Memory trick · Prashant Sir
Minuscule को mini से नहीं, minus से जोड़िए। Minus यानी कम, और minuscule यानी अत्यंत छोटा। इसी से spelling भी पक्की होगी: m-i-n-U-s-c-u-l-e।
Do not link MINUSCULE with 'mini'; link it with MINUS. Minus means less, so minuscule means extremely small. This also fixes the spelling: m-i-n-U-s-c-u-l-e.
