Which of the following is the synonym of the term "HACKNEYED"?
Hackneyed refers to something overused, worn out, or lacking originality.
Let's analyse the options.
Option A, Important: It is opposite in meaning, hackneyed does not mean important
Option B, Horrible: Hackneyed is not about being horrible, but about being dull or overused.
Option C, Clichéd: “Clichéd” means trite, unoriginal, or used too often-exactly the same as hackneyed.
Option D, Heightened: Heightened means increased or intensified, not related to “hackneyed.”
So, option C is the correct answer.
