    Choose the correct meaning of the given idiom.
    In weal and woe

    Answer & explanation

    Answer: B) In prosperity and adversity

    Correct Answer: In prosperity and adversity
    Explanation:
    The idiom "in weal and woe" means in both good times and bad times — that is, during periods of success (weal) and hardship (woe).
    • weal means prosperity or well-being (समृद्धि या भलाई)
    • woe means trouble, sorrow, or hardship (दुःख या संकट)
    So, the phrase refers to being present or supportive in all circumstances, whether positive or negative.
    Other options are too narrow or incorrect:
    • In despair and failure – only refers to bad times
    • In happiness and good times – only covers good times
    • In sad and gloomy days – focuses only on sadness
    Hence, the correct meaning is: In prosperity and adversity.
