Question

Choose the kangaroo word that carries a small version of the word with a very similar meaning:

• A. Masculine
• B. Woman
• C. Man
• D. Child

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In the given problem, we are looking for a kangaroo word—a word that contains another word with a similar meaning. Here, the word "Masculine" is a kangaroo word because it includes “male” within it, and both "masculine" and "male" have closely related meanings. Let's break it down:

• "Masculine" is a property or quality associated with being male.
• The word "male" is contained within the letters of "masculine."

Therefore, "masculine" carries a smaller version, "male," which holds a similar meaning, making it a kangaroo word. None of the other options provided ("Woman," "Man," "Child") contain a similar embedded word with a comparable meaning.
