AaSpelling
Suppression has double p and double s (not 'supression' or 'suppresion').
Spelling suppression में p और s दोनों दो-दो बार आते हैं ('supression' या 'suppresion' गलत है)।
?Which word?
Do not confuse suppression (stopping something by force) and oppression (cruel and unfair treatment of people over a long time).
Suppression (बल से किसी चीज़ को रोकना) और oppression (लंबे समय तक लोगों के साथ क्रूर और अन्यायपूर्ण व्यवहार) में भ्रम न करें।
