Question

Select the word which is nearly the same in meaning to the given word. (Emaciated)

• A. thin

Answer 1

Answer:

A. thin

Emaciated means very thin, weak, or lean, usually because of illness, lack of food, or hardship.

Example:

The patient looked emaciated after the long illness.

❌ Why others are wrong:

• modest → humble / simple

• complicate → make something difficult

• strong → opposite meaning
