Adjective
Which is the adjective form of the word "restrict"?
The correct answer is D, "Both B & C."
Explanation:
An adjective is a word that describes or modifies a noun or pronoun. In this case, we are looking for the adjective form of the verb "restrict."
Option A, "restriction," is a noun, not an adjective. It refers to the act of restricting or a limitation imposed on something.
Option B, "restricted," is the past participle form of the verb "restrict." While it can function as an adjective (e.g. "a restricted area"), it does not capture the full range of meanings associated with the verb.
Option C, "restrictive," is the proper adjective form of "restrict." It describes something that restricts or limits. For example, "a restrictive policy" or "a restrictive diet."
Therefore, option D, "Both B & C," is the correct answer. While "restricted" is a limited adjective form of "restrict," "restrictive" captures the full range of meanings associated with the verb.
