Select one word for the following group of words.
One who leaves his own country to settle in another
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The word that best describes a person who leaves his own country to settle in another is emigrant.
- Foreigner refers to someone who is not a citizen of the country they are currently living in.
- Native refers to someone who was born in a particular place.
- Tourist refers to someone who is visiting a place for pleasure.
- Emigrant refers to someone who leaves their own country to settle in another.
The word emigrant is the most appropriate because it specifically refers to someone who has left their own country permanently to live in another. The other words do not have the same connotation of permanent relocation.
