Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Concept: The word \textit{garrulous} means excessively talkative, especially about trivial matters. It comes from the Latin word \textit{garrire}, meaning “to chatter.” Explanation: The correct spelling is garrulous, which contains double \textit{r} and double \textit{l}. The incorrect options either misspell the vowel sequence or alter the double consonants.
