Neglect को select का उल्टा सोचिए — जिसे select ही न किया, उसे किनारे छोड़ दिया, उस पर ध्यान नहीं दिया। Neglect = ध्यान न देना, देखभाल न करना। Care और heed इसके उल्टे हैं।

Think of NEGLECT as the opposite of SELECT: what you do not select, you leave aside and give no attention to. To neglect is to fail to take care of someone or something. Care, heed and preserve are the opposites.
