zeal·ous

?Which word?

zealous or jealous?

Zealous (/ˈzeləs/) means full of zeal or enthusiasm: 'a zealous reformer'. Jealous (/ˈdʒeləs/) means envious or fearful of losing somebody's love: 'a jealous husband'. The spellings differ by one letter and the meanings are unrelated.

Zealous (/ˈzeləs/) का अर्थ 'उत्साह से भरा' है, जैसे 'a zealous reformer'। Jealous (/ˈdʒeləs/) का अर्थ 'ईर्ष्यालु या किसी का प्यार खोने से डरने वाला' है, जैसे 'a jealous husband'। Spelling में एक अक्षर का अंतर है और अर्थ बिलकुल अलग हैं।

The zealous/jealous pair is a spelling item.

Zealous और jealous का अंतर spelling में पूछा जाता है।
