?Which word?
Keep apart dotage (old age with weak mind) and dote on (love somebody very much and ignore their faults: 'She dotes on her grandson').
Dotage (कमज़ोर मन वाला बुढ़ापा) और dote on (किसी को बहुत प्रेम करना और उसकी गलतियाँ अनदेखी करना: 'She dotes on her grandson') को अलग रखिए।
Keep the old-age words together: dotage, senility (weakness of mind in old age), decrepitude (being old and in poor condition), twilight years (the last part of life), second childhood (old age when a person behaves like a child).
बुढ़ापे के शब्द साथ याद रखिए: dotage, senility (बुढ़ापे में मन की दुर्बलता), decrepitude (बूढ़ा और जर्जर होना), twilight years (जीवन का अंतिम भाग), second childhood (बुढ़ापा जब व्यक्ति बच्चे जैसा व्यवहार करे)।
