The correct meaning of the word "forte" is, a person's strong suit.

Answer: Option B.

Explanation:

The line ‘Literary criticism is not your forte, my dear fellow. Don't try it. You should leave that to [other] people’ is a part of the play ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ written by Oscar Wild. When the speaker says, ‘Literary criticism is not your forte’ he means that you’re not good at criticizing, so just don't try it. Forte refers to a person’s strong suit or characteristics at which he/she is good at. In simple words, forte means a skill or talent of a person.

<h3>What is conflict?</h3>

This question seems to be missing the answer choices and, because we were not able to find the complete question online, we will provide you with a general answer to help you. First, let's understand that a conflict, in literature, is a fight or opposition between two forces.

First, we can divide conflict into two types:

  • External conflict - between the character and an external force.
  • Internal conflict - between the character and his own thoughts, feelings, fears, etc.

Another possible categorization of conflicts is:

  • Character vs. character
  • Character vs. self
  • Character vs. nature
  • Character vs. society

The conflict described in the scenario in the question is an external conflict, more specifically a character vs. society one. The character is the wrongfully accused man, and he needs to prove to society, represented by the jury, that he is innocent.
