⌂Word origin and word building
Learn the whole set by the Latin numbers: sexagenarian (60s), septuagenarian (70s), octogenarian (80s), nonagenarian (90s), centenarian (100 or more); octo- means eight, as in octopus and October (once the eighth month).
पूरा समूह Latin संख्याओं से याद रखिए: sexagenarian (60 के दशक), septuagenarian (70), octogenarian (80), nonagenarian (90), centenarian (100 या अधिक); octo- का अर्थ आठ है, जैसे octopus और October (कभी आठवाँ महीना) में।
