- SSC Steno 2026 T-1 Spelling
Select the wrongly spelt word.
Answer & explanation
Answer: C) Woker
Rule: an agent noun keeps its base word whole before -er — *teach* ⟶ teacher, *farm* ⟶ farmer, *work* ⟶ worker.
Old English *weorc* gives *work*, and -er turns the verb into the person who does it: work + er = W-O-R-K-E-R.
Option 3 is printed *Woker*, with the r of *work* lost — and *woke* is the past tense of *wake*, a different word altogether. So this is the wrongly spelt one; the correct form is Worker.
worker = a person who does a job, especially paid or manual work *(कर्मचारी, मज़दूर)*.
Why the others are fine.
• Useful = able to be used for a good purpose, helpful *(उपयोगी, लाभदायक)* — *use* + -ful, and the suffix never doubles its l.
Only the adverb does: *usefully*.
• Velvet = a so
