Memory trick · Prashant Sir
Perilous, 'peril' यानी ख़तरे से बना है — जैसे 'at your own peril'। Perilous रास्ता peril से भरा, यानी बहुत जोखिम भरा। उल्टा safe, harmless, innocuous।
PERILOUS is built on 'peril', meaning danger, as in 'at your own peril'. A perilous road is full of peril — very dangerous. Its opposites are safe, harmless and innocuous.
