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.
