The best synonym for the word "Engrossed" is: Option 2: Absorbed
Here's why:
- Engrossed: means fully occupied or involved in something; completely absorbed.
- Absorbed: means taken up completely by something; fully occupied or engaged.
Both words emphasize a state of being completely attention to something.
The other options are not as close in meaning:
- Absolved: Means freed from blame or guilt. It doesn't convey the sense of being fully occupied or engaged.
- Interested: Means having a feeling of curiosity or concern about something. While interest can lead to being engrossed, it doesn't necessarily imply the same level of complete absorption.
- Engaged: Can mean involved in an activity, but it doesn't necessarily imply the same intensity of focus as engrossed or absorbed.
