?Which word?

induce or deduce?

Induce means to persuade or to cause: 'induce sleep'. Deduce means to work something out from the evidence: 'From the mud on his shoes I deduced that he had walked.' In logic, induction reasons from examples to a general rule; deduction from a rule to a particular case.

Induce का अर्थ 'राज़ी करना' या 'उत्पन्न करना' है, जैसे 'induce sleep'। Deduce का अर्थ 'प्रमाण से निष्कर्ष निकालना' है, जैसे 'From the mud on his shoes I deduced that he had walked'। Logic में induction उदाहरणों से सामान्य नियम तक जाता है; deduction नियम से विशेष मामले तक।
