Identify the misspelt word


Options:

  1. Acquiescence
  2. Bourgeoisie
  3. Consciencious
  4. Epitome

Right Answer: Consciencious

'Acquiescence', 'Bourgeoisie', and 'Epitome' are all correctly spelt words in standard English. 'Acquiescence' means passive acceptance, 'Bourgeoisie' refers to the middle class, and 'Epitome' means a perfect example of something. However, 'Consciencious' is misspelt; the correct spelling is 'Conscientious', meaning diligent, careful, and governed by conscience. The error lies in the incorrect ordering of letters after 'consc', where 'ien' should precede 't' rather than the reversed form used here. Therefore, the misspelt word among the options is 'Consciencious', making option 3 the correct answer.
