Memory trick · Prashant Sir
Purify (शुद्ध करना) का उल्टा putrefy (सड़ना)। 'Put free' सुनिए: खाना खुला छोड़ दो, सड़ जाएगा। Put + free = putrefy।
PUTREFY is the opposite of PURIFY: purify makes clean, putrefy makes rotten. Also hear 'put free': put food out, free and uncovered, and it will rot.
Exam note
