Which of the following options is NOT one of the meanings of the homonym 'current'?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
Correct Answer: A small dried grape used in making buns and cakes
Explanation
• Current refers to something existing now, a flow of liquid/gas, or the flow of electricity.
• A small, seedless dried grape is spelled currant, which is a homophone (sounds the same but has a different spelling and meaning).
Quick Tip: Remember that 'currant' with an 'a' refers to an apple/edible fruit, whereas 'current' with an 'e' relates to electricity and events.
