Pick out the wrongly spelt word from the given words.
A
Villaineous
B
Transience
C
Grievance
D
Receive
Correct Option:
A
Explanation
The printed form "Villaineous" is incorrect. The correct spelling is "villainous." The other words—"transience," "grievance," and "receive"—are correctly spelt. A useful point to remember is that villain loses the final extra-looking vowel pattern when forming villainous: villain + ous → villainous.
