Question

Choose the one which best expresses the meaning of
WELSH

• A. Encourage
• B. Perspire
• C. Inspire
• D. Default

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

'Welsh' means fail to honour something. E.g. Banks began welshing on their agreement not to convert dollar reserves into gold. 'Perspire' means to sweat. 'Inspire' means to make someone feel that they want to do something and can do it. 'Encourage' means to motivate someone. 'Default' means failure to fulfil an obligation.

Thus, option D is the correct answer.
