Answer:

Fastidious

Explanation:

Words from the same language that have the same or similar meanings are called synonyms. In this case, we are looking for synonyms of the words dainty/squeamish.

The word <em>dainty</em> means of<em> delicate taste, easily disgusted.</em>

If someone is squeamish, they are easily upset, shocked, or disgusted by things they find unpleasant or don't approve of.

The word with the similar meaning is<em> </em><em>fastidious</em><em>,</em> meaning <em>paying attention to small details and wanting everything to be correct and perfect</em>, or <em>having high standards, difficult to please</em>. In dictionaries, it is often listed as a synonym of <em>dainty.</em>

The rest of the words don't have similar meanings.

A vixen is a female fox.

If something is cryptic, it is mysterious.

<em>Mortified</em> means extremely<em> embarrassed.</em>
