AaSpelling

forth·com·ing

With forth- (forward), not 'fourth' (4th).

forth- (आगे) के साथ, 'fourth' (चौथा) नहीं।

?Which word?

The forth/fourth pair is a homophone trap: 'go forth' (forward) versus 'the fourth day'.

Forth और fourth की जोड़ी homophone trap है: 'go forth' (आगे) बनाम 'the fourth day'।

Keep the soon words together: forthcoming, upcoming, impending (about to happen, often something bad), imminent (very soon), approaching.

जल्द होने के शब्द साथ याद रखिए: forthcoming, upcoming, impending (होने वाला, प्रायः बुरा), imminent (बहुत जल्द), approaching।
