Daily Vocabulary from Indian Newspapers (29 August 2025): DAILY QUIZ

1. The citizens decided to petition the municipal government for increased funding for public transportation, organizing a comprehensive campaign that included collecting signatures and presenting detailed budget proposals.

In this context, “petition” most nearly means:

In this context, "petition" functions as a verb meaning to make a formal request or appeal to an authority. The citizens are formally requesting increased funding through organized, respectful channels. Option A is incorrect because petitioning doesn't necessarily involve legal action. Option C is wrong because petitioning is more formal and structured than protesting. Option D is incorrect as petitioning is making a request, not negotiating. Option E is too aggressive; petitioning involves respectful requests rather than demands.

2. Which word best captures the same meaning as “nuanced” in sophisticated discourse?

"Multifaceted" is the best synonym for "nuanced" because both words describe something that possesses multiple layers, aspects, or dimensions that require careful consideration to fully understand. A nuanced argument acknowledges various perspectives and complexities, just as something multifaceted has many different sides or angles. Option A (elaborate) suggests detailed development but not necessarily multiple perspectives. Option B (subtle) captures only one aspect of nuance—the understated quality—but misses the multi-dimensional aspect. Option C (intricate) implies complexity but not necessarily the sophisticated understanding of multiple viewpoints that "nuanced" conveys. Option D (comprehensive) suggests thoroughness but not the delicate appreciation of multiple perspectives inherent in "nuanced."

3. The constitutional scholar __________ the specific powers granted to Congress, methodically listing each authority from taxation to military regulation to ensure no ambiguity remained in her analysis.

"Enumerated" means to list items systematically and in detail, which perfectly fits the context of methodically listing each congressional power. The phrase "methodically listing each authority" directly supports this meaning. Option A (extrapolated) means to infer or extend known information to unknown areas, which doesn't match the systematic listing described. Option C (corroborated) means to confirm or support with evidence, but the scholar isn't confirming—she's listing. Option D (synthesized) means to combine elements into a coherent whole, opposite of the detailed separation implied by enumeration. Option E (postulated) means to assume or propose as a basis for reasoning, which contradicts the factual listing of established constitutional powers.

4. Which word represents the most precise antonym of “beleaguered”?

"Flourishing" is the most precise antonym of "beleaguered" because it captures not just the absence of harassment or pressure, but active thriving and prosperity. "Beleaguered" means harassed by difficulties or criticism, under siege, struggling against persistent problems. "Flourishing" suggests vigorous growth, success, and thriving conditions—the complete opposite state. Option A (triumphant) suggests victory but doesn't necessarily imply ongoing thriving. Option B (untroubled) indicates absence of problems but lacks the positive dynamism that contrasts with being beleaguered. Option C (fortified) suggests strength against attack but doesn't convey the prosperous, thriving state that truly opposes being beleaguered. Option D (serene) implies peacefulness but not the active success and growth that "flourishing" encompasses.

5. In diplomatic negotiations, an ultimatum differs from other forms of pressure primarily because it:

An ultimatum is specifically a final, non-negotiable demand that includes explicit consequences if the demand is not met within a specified timeframe. This finality and consequence-specification distinguishes it from other negotiation tactics. The word derives from "ultimate," emphasizing that it represents the last resort before predetermined actions are taken. Option A incorrectly describes an ultimatum as an opening move rather than a final one. Option C mischaracterizes ultimatums as face-saving devices when they actually force decisive action. Option D suggests ultimatums are merely rhetorical, when they are meant to be taken literally and seriously. Option E incorrectly portrays ultimatums as frameworks for continued dialogue, when they actually represent the end of negotiation and demand immediate decision-making.
