What is the meaning of 'complement' and 'compliment' respectively?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The answer is ☀ To enhance, To praise.
Complement and compliment are two words that are often confused because they sound similar. However, they have different meanings.
- Complement means to enhance or complete something. For example, you might say "The red wine complemented the steak perfectly" or "The white dress complemented her complexion."
- Compliment means to praise or express admiration for someone or something. For example, you might say "I compliment you on your presentation" or "That's a beautiful dress, you look great in it."
The other options are incorrect. Inexpensive means not costing much money, and it is not related to either complement or compliment.
