A blessing in disguise

A.

To share a secret that wasn’t suppose to be shared

B.

Something good that isn’t recognized at first

C.

To act in a frenzied manner

D.

To politely ask for someone’s full attention

Correct option is B


The correct meaning of the given idiom is (b) Something good that isn’t recognized at first.

Explanation:

  • A blessing in disguise means an event that seems bad or unfortunate initially but later turns out to have a good result. (Hindi meaning: छिपा हुआ वरदान)
  • Example: Losing that job was a blessing in disguise because it pushed him to start his own business.

Why other options are incorrect:

  • (a) Refers to revealing a secret, which is not the meaning of this idiom.
  • (c) Refers to behaving wildly or frantically, unrelated to hidden benefit.
  • (d) Refers to requesting attention politely, unrelated to this idiom.

So the correct answer is (b)
