?Which word?
vindictive or vindicate?
Vindictive means seeking revenge: 'a vindictive ex-partner'. Vindicate means to clear somebody of blame or to prove somebody right: 'The inquiry vindicated the officer.' Both come from the Latin vindicare (to claim or avenge), but one is a fault and the other a favour: the vindictive man wants revenge; the vindicated man has been proved right.
Vindictive का अर्थ 'बदला चाहने वाला' है: 'a vindictive ex-partner'। Vindicate का अर्थ 'किसी को दोषमुक्त करना या सही सिद्ध करना' है: 'The inquiry vindicated the officer'। दोनों Latin vindicare (दावा करना या बदला लेना) से हैं, पर एक दोष है और दूसरा अनुग्रह: vindictive व्यक्ति बदला चाहता है; vindicated व्यक्ति सही सिद्ध हुआ है।
