Correct option is A
Option (a) is the
correctly spelt word.
Correct spelling is: “
pseudonym” — a fictitious name adopted by an author or a person to conceal identity; also called a pen name. It derives from Greek pseudēs (false) + onyma (name). (Hindi:
छद्म नाम,
उपनाम)
Example: Samuel Clemens wrote under the
pseudonym “Mark Twain.”
Parts of speech note: Pseudonym is a
noun. The misspelling “psuedonym” arises from transposing the letters
e and
u after
pseu-. Correct pattern:
pseu- + do + nym.
