Defame
Perform
Commend
Communicate
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is A. Defame.
To defame someone is to say or write something that is false and harmful about them. It is a form of slander or libel.
To perform is to do something, especially a task or an action that is required or expected of you.
To commend someone is to praise them or express approval of them.
To communicate is to share information or ideas with someone else.
In this case, the word “vilify” means to speak ill of someone in a very negative way. The other options do not have the same meaning.
