Synonym of ACCENTUATED

Projected
Exhibited
Sharpened
Mitigated

The correct answer is C. Sharpened.

The word “accentuated” means to make something more noticeable or distinct. The other options do not have this meaning.

  • Option A, “projected,” means to throw or propel something forward or outward.
  • Option B, “exhibited,” means to display or show something publicly.
  • Option D, “mitigated,” means to make something less severe or intense.

For example, if you accentuate a word in a sentence, you make it stand out more by speaking it louder or more clearly. If you sharpen a knife, you make the blade more pointed and effective.
