Question:

Select the most appropriate meaning of the given Idiom:-

Read between the lines 

Options:

Understanding between two person

Imitate one

Understand the hidden meaning

Free from difficulties and dangers

Correct Answer:

Understand the hidden meaning

Explanation:

The most appropriate meaning of the idiom "read between the lines" is to understand the hidden meaning. The idiom comes from the idea that there is often more to a text than what is explicitly stated. In a figurative sense, to read between the lines means to look for the hidden meaning or subtext in something that is said or written.

The other options are not as accurate descriptions of the meaning of the idiom. Understanding between two person is not the same as reading between the lines. Imitate one is not the same as reading between the lines. Free from difficulties and dangers is not typically associated with the idiom "reading between the lines."
