Correct option is A


The correct word to replace the highlighted word “wonderful” is an exotic.
Sentence: The chef used an exotic blend of spices to flavour the dish.
Detailed Explanation: “Exotic” means unusual, striking, or originating from a distant land. In the context of cooking, it refers to spices that are not common or ordinary, which aligns better than the general term “wonderful.” It adds more vividness and precision to describe the flavor.
Correct word: Exotic
Hindi meaning: विदेशी, अद्भुत, असामान्य
Use in a sentence: The market had exotic fruits imported from Southeast Asia.
Meanings of the other options:
· (b) An essential – Necessary or very important.
Hindi: आवश्यक – स्वाद या विशेषता का वर्णन नहीं करता
· (c) A supernatural – Beyond natural, mystical.
Hindi: अलौकिक – खाना पकाने के संदर्भ में अनुपयुक्त
· (d) A bland – Lacking flavor or interest (opposite of intended meaning)
Hindi: फीका, स्वादहीन – विपरीतार्थी है
