Rebel में 'रे, बल' सुनिए — बल यानी ताक़त। जो बार-बार बल दिखाकर सरकार या शासक के ख़िलाफ़ खड़ा हो, वह rebel है।

Hear 're, bal' in REBEL, where 'bal' in Hindi means force. A rebel shows force against the government or the ruler again and again.

Exam note

Noun में REB-el, verb में re-BEL। Insurgent, mutineer synonym; loyalist उल्टा। Rebel और traitor (ग़द्दार) अलग हैं।

The noun is stressed REB-el and the verb re-BEL. Insurgent and mutineer are synonyms; loyalist is the opposite. Do not confuse a rebel with a traitor.
