What you should understandआपको क्या समझना है?
- Words travel in pairs: we say 'make a mistake' and 'do homework', never 'do a mistake'.
- Learn the whole partnership, not the single word: 'heavy rain', 'strong tea', 'take a decision' vs 'make a decision'.
- Use 'have' for meals and rest: have breakfast, have a shower, have a break.
- When you meet a new word, note one or two words that usually sit beside it.
