?Which word?
Do not confuse incapacity (inability) and incapability, which are close in meaning, but incapacity is the more common word and is also used for illness that stops you working.
Incapacity (अक्षमता) और incapability में भ्रम न करें, जिनका अर्थ मिलता-जुलता है, पर incapacity अधिक प्रचलित शब्द है और ऐसी बीमारी के लिए भी प्रयोग होता है जो आपको काम करने से रोकती है।
