Choose the correct spelling.

A) Gallows
B) Ghellows
C) Gellows
D) Ghallows

Hint: Words are a combination or group of letters that are arranged in a meaningful manner. Each word has a spelling that is the sequence of the letters used to form the word. Correct spelling of the word is important to know the correct meaning.

Complete answer:

Keeping in mind the hint, let us analyze each option one by one.

Option A is Gallows. The word gallows means a weighing tool or a wooden instrument that is used by the people for the purpose of weighing different objects by hanging them on the tool. This word has a meaning; therefore, the spelling of the word is correct. Hence, option A can be possibly the correct answer.

But, let us analyze other options as well before making any decision.

Ghellows is option B. Even if we search the meaning of the word at various places, this spelling does not give us a meaningful word. Therefore, using the hint given above, we can infer that the spelling ‘Ghellows’ is wrong. Hence, option B is incorrect.

Option C is Gellows. Even this spelling does not give us a meaningful word. If e is replaced by an in the spelling, then the word becomes meaningful. But the other way, it is not correct and meaningful. Therefore, option C is also incorrect.

Option D is Ghallows, this word has an incorrect spelling. This is because, word Ghallows does not have a meaning and therefore, this is not a proper word. Therefore, going according to the hint, option D will also be incorrect.

So, the correct answer is “Option A”.

Note: Spelling should always form a meaningful word. The pronunciation of the word can also be observed in order to identify if the spelling is written correctly or not. This will help in eliminating the wrong options as well.
