?Which word?

Do not confuse deflation (a general fall in prices) and disinflation (a fall in the rate of inflation, when prices still rise but more slowly).

Deflation (कीमतों में सामान्य गिरावट, अपस्फीति) और disinflation (मुद्रास्फीति की दर में कमी, जब कीमतें बढ़ती तो हैं पर धीमी गति से, अवस्फीति) में भ्रम न करें।
