Answer 1

Hint: A synonym is a name, morpheme, or phrase that in the same language signifies exactly or almost the same as another name, morpheme, or phrase. The terms begin, start, begin, and initiate, for instance, are all synonyms of one another; they are synonymous.

Complete answer:
Option C is the correct response since Fastidious 's sense is very vigilant, very concerned about thorough accuracy.
Synonyms of fastidious, perfectionist, delicate fussiness.
Therefore, choice C is the right answer.

Additional Information:
 With its long history of absorbing vocabulary from a wealth of other languages, English is a language especially rich in synonyms, terms that are so similar in meaning that they are interchangeable in certain contexts, such as the tongue and language nouns in the first part of this sentence. "Just about every common dictionary describes a synonym as a word with the sense of" the same or almost the same "as another, although there is a major difference between" the same "and" almost the same.

Sometimes, noun synonyms mean precisely the same thing. A Dalmatian is a trainer's dog, the same dog. A chest of drawers is a bureau. And if you ask for soda on the east coast of the U.S., you'll get the same drink that you'll get further west by asking for a pop. The object that is referred to stays constant. But forests and woods have different shades of language, although sometimes interchangeable: a forest appears to be larger and denser than a wood

Hence the correct answer is option ‘C'.

Note:Try to understand the meaning of the word given, and look at the options given. Differentiate as they have a difference in context between each of the choices. Choose the most suitable choice, i.e. the choice nearest to the given word in terms of context.
