CANNY

Obstinate
Handsome
Clever
Stout

The correct answer is C. Clever.

Canny means shrewd, sharp-witted, and cunning. It is often used in a positive sense to describe someone who is intelligent and resourceful. For example, you might say that a canny businessman is able to make shrewd deals, or that a canny politician is able to outmaneuver their opponents.

The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the meaning of the word canny.

  • Obstinate means stubbornly refusing to change one’s opinion or course of action.
  • Handsome means attractive in appearance.
  • Stout means having a large body or frame.

I hope this helps!
