AaSpelling

in·ces·sant

With -cess- and -ant (not 'incesant' or 'incessent'); from the Latin cessare, to stop, as in cease and cessation, so incessant means 'not stopping'.

बीच में -cess- और अंत में -ant ('incesant' या 'incessent' गलत है); Latin cessare, रुकना, से, cease और cessation की तरह, इसलिए incessant का अर्थ 'न रुकने वाला' है।
