Answer:

B. Spectaculor

Read Explanation:

Correct Spelling: Spectacular (ending in -ar, not -or). Meaning: Beautiful in a dramatic and eye-catching way. Reason for Error: This is a common spelling mistake based on phonetics (sound). The suffix -ar is incorrectly replaced with -or, which is common in words like doctor or actor.
