Match the pair to its meaning: Column A Column B
1. Faze - A) Disturb or upset
2. Phase - B) Stage or step in a process
1-A, 2-B
Faze and Phase are homophones: they sound alike but differ in spelling and meaning.
Faze is a verb meaning to disturb or upset someone, as in Nothing seems to faze her. So 1 matches A.
Phase is a noun meaning a distinct stage or step in a process, as in the first phase of the project. So 2 matches B.
The correct matching is therefore 1-A, 2-B.
Hence, 1-A, 2-B.
