?Which word?

Do not confuse roil (to disturb or stir up violently) and rile (to make somebody angry), although roil is sometimes used with the same meaning as rile.

Roil (ज़ोर से हलचल मचाना या उथल-पुथल करना) और rile (किसी को गुस्सा दिलाना) में भ्रम न करें, हालाँकि roil कभी-कभी rile के अर्थ में भी प्रयोग होता है।
