Answer & explanation
Answer: A) Cigarette
Correct Answer: Option 1 — "Cigarette"
Correct spelling: C-I-G-A-R-E-T-T-E ✓
"Cigarette" = a thin cylinder of finely cut tobacco rolled in paper for smoking.
Memory tip: 'CIGAR' + 'ETTE' — a cigarette is smaller than a cigar, with the French diminutive '- ette ' added. ✓
Why other options are wrong:
Option 2 ' Cigrette ' — drops 'a' after 'cig': 'cig- rette ' instead of 'cig-a- rette .' ✗
Option 3 ' Cigartte ' — drops 'e' before ' tte ': 'cigar- tte ' instead of 'cigar- ette .' ✗
Option 4 ' Cigarate ' — replaces '- ette ' with '-ate': wrong suffix entirely. ✗
