Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3, i.e. “feeling slightly ill.”
The idiom “under the weather” means not feeling well or experiencing mild sickness, such as a cold. It suggests you’re unwell but not severely ill. Reliable sources confirm this meaning: dictionaries describe it as “feeling a little under the weather—getting a cold,” and QuillBot defines it as “feeling sick or unwell”.
