Up + right — सीधा ऊपर खड़ा, झुका नहीं। दोनों अर्थ इसी से: खंभा upright खड़ा, और upright इंसान चरित्र में भी सीधा — ईमानदार। Crooked दोनों अर्थों में उल्टा है।

UP + RIGHT: standing straight up, not bent. Both meanings come from this picture. A pole stands upright, and an upright person stands straight in character too, honest and fair. Crooked is the opposite in both senses.
