re·nun·ci·a·tion
With -nun- (not 'renounciation'); the verb renounce keeps -noun-, just like pronounce/pronunciation and announce/annunciation.
यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: re-nun-ci-a-tion, बीच में -nun- ('renounciation' गलत है); verb renounce में -noun- बना रहता है, बिलकुल pronounce/pronunciation और announce/annunciation की तरह।
