Identifying the INCORRECTLY Spelt Word

The question asks us to find the word that is spelled incorrectly among the given options. Let's examine each word:

  • FALSE: This word is spelled correctly. It means not true or correct.
  • Fashion: This word is spelled correctly. It refers to a popular style or practice, especially in clothing, footwear, accessories, makeup, hairstyles, and body proportions.
  • Fiery: This word is spelled correctly. It means having the nature of fire; characterized by or resembling fire; relating to or involving fire.
  • Fierse: This word is incorrectly spelled. The correct spelling is Fierce.

Explanation of the Spelling Error

The core of the question lies in identifying the misspelling. Let's focus on the incorrect word:

  • The word presented as 'Fierse' is a misspelling.
  • The standard and correct English spelling is 'Fierce'.
  • 'Fierce' means aggressively intense, powerful, or violent; strong.

Comparing 'Fierse' with the correct spelling 'Fierce', we can see the difference is the presence of the letter 'e' after 'r' in the correct version.

  • Option 1: FALSE - Correct.
  • Option 2: Fashion - Correct.
  • Option 3: Fiery - Correct.
