SSC GD Const (English) - 22 Feb 2024 - Shift 3 • English • Q15

In the following question, out of the given four alternatives, select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of the Idiom/Phrase.

To pick somebody's pocket

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. To steal something from the pocket.

The idiom "to pick somebody's pocket" means to steal something, usually money or valuables, from someone's pocket without their knowledge.

It specifically refers to the act of theft, often done in a stealthy manner.

The other options, such as "to make a very difficult choice," "to choose wisely," and "to cry for financial help," do not relate to the concept of stealing, making "to steal something from the pocket" the correct meaning.
