2. SSC CHSL 2025 T-1 Spelling

   Identify the misspelled word:

   AMeticulousBResuscitateCAdquireDPeriphery
   Answer & explanation

   Answer: C) Adquire

   " Adquire " is misspelled. The correct spelling is " Acquire " (A-C-Q-U-I-R-E) — meaning to get or obtain something. The error is the addition of a 'd' before 'q.' In English, "acquire" has no 'd': it comes from Latin " acquirere " (to get in addition). Meticulous, Resuscitate, and Periphery are all correctly spelled.

3. SSC CHSL 2025 T-1 Spelling

   Which sentence contains a misspelled word?

   AIn order to advance within the company's hierarchy, employees must acquire new skills and take on greater responsibilities.BShe hoped to aquire the experience necessary to move up the strict corporate hierarchy.CThe team needed to acquire additional funding to navigate the complex hierarchy of approvals.DHe worked hard to acquire a position high in the organization's hierarchy.
   Answer & explanation

   Answer: B) She hoped to aquire the experience necessary to move up the strict corporate hierarchy.

   Option B contains the misspelled word " aquire " — the correct spelling is " acquire " (A-C-Q-U-I-R-E), meaning to obtain or come to have something. The word "acquire" always contains the silent 'c' after 'a' and before 'q': a-C-quire. " Aquire " omits the 'c,' making it incorrect. All other sentences correctly spell "acquire." Memory tip: "A-C-Quire" — the 'c' comes before 'q,' just as in "acquest" and "acquisition."

Examples

• “She worked hard to acquire new skills for the job.”
