Question

Choose the word which best expresses the meaning of the italicized bold part of the sentence:
He failed to savvy the full implications of the agreement that he had signed.

• A. remember
• B. memorise
• C. understand
• D. taste

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

understand

Option C: 'Savvy' means 'know or understand'.

'Understand' means 'know or realize something'.

This word means the same as the given italicized word. Hence option C is correct.

Option A: 'Remember' means 'to bring back or hold a memory in mind'.

Option B: 'Memorise' means 'learn by heart'.

Option D: 'Taste' means 'have experience of something'.

These words do not mean the same as the given word 'savvy'.

So, options A, B and D are wrong.
