Question

Choose the correctly spelt word:

• A. Incessaently
• B. Incissantly
• C. Incesantly
• D. Incessantly

Hint:

Remember the 'double s' and the 'a' in the '-ant' suffix for the word 'incessant'. Many spelling errors occur by omitting one 's' or using the wrong vowel.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Understanding the Word:
The word means "without interruption; constantly."

Step 2: Analyzing the Spelling:
The correct spelling is derived from the root 'cease' (to stop) and the prefix 'in-' (not). The structure is In-cessant-ly.
Let's check the options:
(A) Incessaently - Incorrect vowel 'ae'.
(B) Incissantly - Incorrect 'i' instead of 'e'.
(C) Incesantly - Missing the second 's'.
(D) Incessantly - This spelling is correct. It has 'in-', 'cessant' (from cease), and '-ly'.

Step 3: Final Answer:
The correctly spelt word is Incessantly.
