◇Word family
?Which word?
Do not confuse wring (to twist and squeeze; wrung, wrung) and ring (to make a bell sound; rang, rung).
Wring (निचोड़ना; wrung, wrung) और ring (घंटी बजाना; rang, rung) को आपस में न मिलाइए।
§Grammar and usage
The w is silent, so wring sounds exactly like ring.
W silent है, इसलिए wring बिल्कुल ring जैसा बोला जाता है।
