Question

Select the option that rectifies the spelling error in the following sentence. The poet was able to compose the long poem in a tranquill atmosphere.

• A. tranquil
• B. trankwil
• C. trancuel
• D. tranquel

Answer 1

Answer:

A. tranquil

• The word Tranquil (meaning calm and peaceful) is spelled with a single 'l' at the end. • "Tranquill" with a double 'l' is sometimes used in British English for derivative forms (like tranquillity), but the standard adjective form in this context is Tranquil.
