Explanation

Compliment and Complement

These terms are homophones,- words that sound alike but have different definitions and spellings.

•

• Complimentary breakfast means free breakfast offered in hotels to guests staying in the rooms

• .

• Complementary refers to enhancing or emphasizing the qualities of another person or thing.

A small tip to remember the difference

I stands for insult,---opposite of compliment

So one with I is compliment

The other one is complement

Hope it is clear

Or else I for iraivan (இறைவன் )

All compliments--Praise to Iraivan

(My own example)
