Tips to remember the word ‘genial’:
– Associate ‘genial’ with ‘genius’, since something ‘brilliant’ can be thought of as ‘genius’.
– Think about ‘genial’ weather; it’s pleasant and enjoyable, just as something ‘genial’ would be.
– Link it to the English word ‘genial’ (which means friendly and cheerful), because the feeling it elicits is similarly positive.
