Aimpertiant

Bimpertaint

Cimpertinent

Dimpertinant

Answer:

C. impertinent

Read Explanation:

Meaning: The word impertinent means being rude, insolent, or not showing proper respect. In the context of the sentence, the speaker is apologizing because their actions might seem disrespectful or rude, even though they are just doing their duty. Spelling Rule: A helpful way to remember the spelling is to break it down: im-per-ti-nent. It ends with -nent (like "permanent" or "continent"), not -nant. The middle vowel is 'i' (-ti-), not 'ai'.
