@FuyukoHarayo im guessing its B?
I have no idea what amare means but I looked it up and it's an Italian word meaning "To love"
Oh! so the word in front of the colon has to have almost the same meaning to the other word?
Looks like it.
Btw Odious means extremely unpleasant or repulsive
So, we can cross out B for sure.
Pax: (in the Christian Church) the kissing of a tablet by all the participants at a mass depicting the Crucifixion or other sacred object; the kiss of peace
Appease means to pacify or placate (someone) by acceding to their demands
Or to relieve or satisfy
So we know it's not that one either, right?
right. im thinking its E. Misein : mistake?
Misein is a greek word meaning "to hate"
oh. so we can cross that out too right?
Yeah.
People say it's C from what I've read.

So it was C all along. o_o Dang.
