Answer:

French, literally left.

Explanation:

The etymology of the word, Gauche is French literally left. Etymology refers to a sequential breakdown of the origin and continued use/meaning of a word in different languages. The word <em>Gauche</em> which means Tactless or lacing social grace is originally derived from the French word, <em>Gauchir, </em>which means warp or distort. This is a merging of two words from the Old French, <em>Gauchier. </em>

The word is a replacement of the original word for left, which is<em> Senestre. </em>So it can also be used as an adjective to refer to the left-hand side of something.

In a group discussion, which of these is the best example of challenging the credibility of a source?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

A. Given that the author reveres Valmiki as a prophet, I don't think we can count on his objectivity.

Note that reveres pretty much means "worship", and if the author reveres Valmiki, it means that the author's opinion is positive, and is not objective.

Objective means giving information without including one own's opinions or "feelings", and only giving the facts.
