?Which word?

Keep the curving words together: sinuous (curving gracefully), serpentine (winding like a snake), meandering (of a river, winding), tortuous (full of twists; also complicated), labyrinthine (like a maze).

घुमाव के शब्द साथ याद रखिए: sinuous (सुंदर ढंग से घुमावदार), serpentine (साँप की तरह घुमावदार), meandering (नदी के लिए, टेढ़ी-मेढ़ी), tortuous (कई मोड़ों वाला; जटिल भी), labyrinthine (भूलभुलैया जैसा)।

Keep apart tortuous (winding) and torturous (causing pain).

Tortuous (घुमावदार) और torturous (पीड़ादायक) को अलग रखिए।
