TRAIL VS TRIAL

TRAIL VERSUS TRIAL

TRIAL:  A formal examination; A Test to Try people or things.  

We can remember its meaning by thinking :-

TRIAL ==> TRI + AL ==> TRY+ALL (EXPERIMENT)

A comes After I.






TRAIL:  A mark or objects left behind by the passage of someone or something; Travel, eg tire Track marks.  Here the A comes before I.

We can remember its meaning by thinking :-

TRAIL ==> TRA + IL ==> TRAVEL
