inevitable in SSC previous-year questions
- SSC MTS 2025 Spelling
Choose the misspelt word from the given options.
Answer & explanation
Answer: B) Inevitible
The correct answer is Option 2: " Inevitible ."
" Inevitible " is a misspelling. The correct spelling is "Inevitable" (I-N-E-V-I-T-A-B-L-E), meaning certain to happen, unavoidable. The suffix is '-able', not '- ible '.
Why the other options are correctly spelt:
• Option 1 – "Credible" is correctly spelt; it means able to be believed, convincing.
• Option 3 – "Invisible" is correctly spelt; it means unable to be seen.
• Option 4 – "Plausible" is correctly spelt; it means seeming reasonable or probable. - SSC Steno 2026 T-1 Synonyms
Choose a word that is similar in meaning to the word in bold.It is inevitable that mistakes will occasionally occur.
Answer & explanation
Answer: D) Unavoidable
Meaning: inevitable = certain to happen, impossible to prevent *(अपरिहार्य, अवश्यंभावी)*.
Unavoidable = that cannot be avoided *(जिससे बचा न जा सके)* — the same idea carried by the same negative prefix.
The sentence calls occasional mistakes a certainty, not something a careful worker can head off.
Why the others are wrong.
• Avertible = that can be warded off in time *(टाला जा सकने योग्य)* — the exact opposite of inevitable.
• Avoidable = that can be kept from happening *(टालने योग्य)* — the antonym, and the commonest trap here because the word looks so close to the answer.
• Doubtful = uncertain, open to question *(संदेहास्पद, संदिग्ध)* — inevitable means there is no doubt at all.
