Choose the correctly spelt word from the given options.
Answer & explanation
Answer: D) Privileged
Correct Answer: Option 4 — Privileged
The correct spelling is "Privileged" — derived from the noun "privilege." The word follows the pattern: privilege + d = privileged.
Why other options are wrong:
Option 1 — "Priviledged": incorrect; inserts an extra "d" before "g" — should be "privi-lege-d," not "privi-ledge-d."
Option 2 — "Privilaged": incorrect; changes "e" to "a" in the root word.
Option 3 — "Privillaged": incorrect; doubles the "l" and uses "a" instead of "e." - SSC MTS 2023 Spelling
