SPELLING — Identify the misspelled word among A–D. If all four are correctly spelled, choose E (All correct). Words: A) Inflamable B) Musician C) Righteousness D) Negotiate

Introduction / Context:
This item checks whether you can recognize the conventional spelling of a potentially hazardous-word pair: “flammable/inflammable.” It also includes common vocabulary like “musician,” “righteousness,” and “negotiate,” which are correctly spelled.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• The intended standard in exam English is “inflammable” (with double m) meaning “easily set on fire.”
• Modern safety writing prefers “flammable” to avoid confusion.
• Single-m form “Inflamable” is treated as incorrect in most standardized tests.

Concept / Approach:
While some historical references list “inflamable” as a rare variant, standardized exam convention recognizes “inflammable” as the correct traditional spelling. Therefore, “Inflamable” (single m) is marked wrong. The other three words are straightforward and correctly spelled.

Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Inspect A: “Inflamable” → expected “inflammable” or simply “flammable.”2) Inspect B: “Musician” → correct.3) Inspect C: “Righteousness” → correct (note “eous”).4) Inspect D: “Negotiate” → correct (note “-tiate”).

Verification / Alternative check:
Dictionary checks show “inflammable” with double m as standard. Safety style guides recommend “flammable” to avoid the paradox that “inflammable” looks like “not flammable.”

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
B “Musician”: standard spelling.C “Righteousness”: standard spelling.D “Negotiate”: standard spelling.E “All correct”: incorrect because A is misspelled.

Common Pitfalls:
Confusing “flammable” vs “inflammable.” For tests, either “flammable” or “inflammable” (double m) is acceptable; the single-m “Inflamable” is not.

Final Answer:
Inflamable → correct: “inflammable” or “flammable”
