Question

Choose the correctly spelt word:

• A. Immediatly
• B. Immediately
• C. Imediately
• D. Immedeately

Hint:

A good rule to remember is that if an adjective ends in '-ate', the adverb is formed by adding '-ly' (e.g., immediate -> immediately, separate -> separately). Don't drop the 'e'.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Understanding the Word:
The word means "at once; instantly."

Step 2: Analyzing the Spelling:
The word is built from 'immediate' and the suffix '-ly'. The key is to spell 'immediate' correctly. It has a double 'm' and ends with '-ate'.
Let's check the options:
(A) Immediatly - Missing the 'e' before '-ly'. A common mistake.
(B) Immediately - Correct spelling: 'immediate' + 'ly'.
(C) Imediately - Missing the double 'm'.
(D) Immedeately - Incorrect vowels 'e' instead of 'i' and 'a'.

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