The part of a dictionary entry that is commonly presented in italics is:

A. the part of speech.

A common dictionary entry will present at least three parts: the headword, the part of speech, and the definition.
For example, when we look up the word "sorrow" in an online dictionary, this is what we find:

sorrow

(a cause of) a feeling of great sadness

Here, the headword is "sorrow", the part of speech is "noun" and the definition is "(a cause of" a feeling of great sadness".
As we can see, the part of speech, "noun", comes in italics. In conclusion, letter A is the correct option.

NikAS [45]

Informal is defined as relaxed, unofficial, or easygoing. If this is a multiple choice question, consider what choices are formal versus informal. <span>Anything that would fall under the category of "formal," which can also mean academic, rigid, proper, precise, or strict, can be ruled out as wrong answers. </span>Things that would be "formal" include tones, or the way that the story is written, that are very rigid and academic. In addition, a list of facts presented one after the other would be formal, not informal. Once you are done ruling these formal answers out, you will know what is informal.
