Memory trick · Prashant Sir

Persist उसी जाने-पहचाने शब्द persistent का verb है, जैसे persistent खाँसी जो जाती ही नहीं। यह insist के करीब है: जो persist करता है, वह हर रुकावट के बावजूद डटा रहता है। Desist (रुक जाना) इसका उल्टा है।

PERSIST is the verb of the familiar word persistent, as in a persistent cough that will not go away. It is close to insist: a person who persists keeps on insisting and trying despite every obstacle. Desist, meaning to stop, is its opposite.
