This question was previously asked in
SSC CHSL 2025 Tier 1 Question Paper (21-Nov-2025) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

Questionnaire

The question asks which option is spelt correctly.

The intended word is 'questionnaire', meaning a set of printed questions used to gather information in a survey.

The word comes into English from French, which explains its distinctive spelling features.

Its correct form has a double 'n' in the middle and ends in '-naire': q-u-e-s-t-i-o-n-n-a-i-r-e.

'Questionair' drops one 'n' and the final 'e'; 'Questionayre' misspells the ending; and 'Questionere' both loses the double 'n' and changes the ending, so all three are wrong.

The reliable test is to check the two trouble spots, the double 'n' and the '-naire' ending, which only the correct option satisfies.

Hence, the correctly spelt word is Questionnaire.
