Peril की आवाज़ 'pearl' जैसी है। समुद्र की गहराई में pearl ढूँढने वाले गोताखोर को सोचिए: sharks, चट्टानें और साँस की कमी, यानी बड़ा ख़तरा। तो peril यानी गंभीर ख़तरा; safety इसका उल्टा।

PERIL sounds like 'pearl'. Picture a diver going deep into the sea for a pearl: sharks, rocks and the lack of air put him in great danger. So peril means serious danger; safety is its opposite.
