Which of the following is NOT the meaning of the homonym 'resort'?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Correct Answer: To arrange things again in a particular order
Explanation:
• The word resort has distinct meanings as both a noun and a verb:
• As a noun: A frequented destination, particularly for vacations and leisure (e.g., a ski resort).
• As a verb: To turn to a certain measure or strategy, usually when other options fail (e.g., resort to violence).
• The action of arranging or categorizing items again corresponds to the verb re-sort (derived from 'sort'), not the homonym 'resort'.
