The correct answer is Option (2) - Prima Facie
Given the sentence "________ he would appear to be guilty," the correct foreign word to fill in the blank is: Prima Facie
"Prima facie" is used to indicate that based on initial evidence or appearances, someone would seem to be guilty. It suggests that there is enough evidence to support the appearance of guilt, though further investigation or evidence might be needed to confirm or refute it.
1. Prima Face: - This is not a standard phrase in English. "Prima" means "first" in Latin, but "Prima Face" does not make sense in this context.
2. Prima Facie: - This is the correct term. "Prima facie" is a Latin phrase meaning "at first sight" or "on the face of it." It is used in legal contexts to mean that there is sufficient evidence to establish a fact or raise a presumption unless disproved.
3. Pro bono: - This is a Latin phrase meaning "for the public good" or "without charge," often used to describe legal services provided voluntarily and without payment to clients who cannot afford them.
4. Sotto voce: - This is an Italian phrase meaning "in a low voice" or "quietly," used to describe speaking in a hushed or confidential manner.
