Question

What is the best replacement for the underlined word in the following sentence?

Answer 1

What is the underlined word?

Answer 2

Answer:

Since you said in the comment above that the underlined word is "random", I'd also say that the best replacement for it would be "inaccurate".

Explanation:

When we take some of the synonyms of random into consideration, we can conclude the the best replacement for it is the word "inaccurate":

- purposeless;

- unaimed;

- unplanned;

- incidental etc.

Inaccurate presents, among its synonyms, the following:

- careless;

- imprecise.

Something that has no purpose, that is not planned, is the same as something that has no care, no precision. Thus, we could replace random for inaccurate.
