Question
In the following question, a word has been given and
there are three ways in which the word has been used, in similar or different forms. You need to see which of the sentence(s) has/have correctly used the given word and mark your answers accordingly. NEFARIOUS I. The closer the potential criminal comes to committing a nefarious deed, the more confident we can be about the prediction that he or she will commit the crime. II. Due to the fact that the swimmer was as natural in the water as walking on the land, his friends used to tell him that he was nefarious . III. We originally thought that John was going to pull nefarious April Fool's Day pranks - but surprisingly, nothing bad happened.Solution
(e) NEFARIOUS: wicked or criminal; morally bad. The word 'nefarious' is used correctly in statement I; it is used as an adjective to describe the noun 'deed' as criminal/morally bad. The use of 'nefarious' in statement II is incorrect; the ability to swim naturally in the water makes the person 'amphibious' (ability to operate on land and in water), which should replace 'nefarious' in the sentence. The word 'nefarious' is used correctly in statement III to modify the noun 'April Fool's Day pranks' as wicked.
