Select the most appropriate meaning of the given Idiom: To put a spoke in one’s wheel |
Repairing of One Cycle wheel Making obstacle in someone's work A new and additional distinction Death sentence |
Making obstacle in someone's work |
The answer is ☀ Making obstacle in someone's work. The idiom "to put a spoke in one's wheel" means to make it difficult for someone to do something. It is a figurative expression that comes from the idea of putting a spoke in the wheel of a carriage, which would make it difficult to move. This idiom is often used to describe someone who is trying to sabotage someone else's plans. The other options are not correct interpretations of the idiom. Repairing a cycle wheel is not the same as putting a spoke in one's wheel, and a new and additional distinction is not an idiom at all. Death sentence is a serious legal term that has nothing to do with the idiom "to put a spoke in one's wheel." |
