a) Separate
b) Separete
c) Soperate
d) Saperate

Answer 1

Hint: To identify the correct spelling, one needs to have a vast knowledge of words. Here, the given word is an adjective.

Complete answer:
The word here, separate, means forming or viewed as a unit apart or by itself; cause move or be apart. For example This raises two separate issues. As it is an adjective, it is a word naming an attribute of a noun, such as sweet, red, or technical.
Now, let us examine all the given options to find out the correct answer :
Option ‘a’ is Separate. This is the correct spelling and this adjective does have a place in the dictionary. So, this is the correct option.
Option ‘b’ is Separete. This is the wrong spelling as this word doesn’t exist. There is no such word in the dictionary.
Option ‘c’ is Soperate. This is also an incorrect answer. No such spelling exists in the dictionary.
Option ‘d’ is Saperate. This spelling is also the wrong one.
As we have examined all the given options, we can easily figure out the correct option. Here, the correct spelling out of four is “separate”. Hence, the option ‘a’ is the correct option.

Note: One cannot carry a dictionary all the time, so you have to be precise with general spellings in the English language.
