Question

Choose the most suitable one word for the given expression.
Code of diplomatic etiquette and precedence

• A. Formalism
• B. Statesmanship
• C. Protocol
• D. Hierarchy

Answer 1

The correct option is C Protocol

A protocol is the system of rules and acceptable behaviour used at official ceremonies and occasions. For example, "a breach of Royal protocol". Hence, Option C is correct. Among the rest of the options, formalism means excessive adherence to prescribed forms, statesmanship means skill in managing public affairs, hierarchy means a system in which members of an organization or society are ranked according to relative status or authority.These do not express this meaning, hence incorrect.
