Which means 'to sway physically, to be indecisive'?

• A. Tacit
• B. Vacillate
• C. Veracity
• D. Verbose

Answer: (B)

Vacillate captures both ideas: to sway between options and to be indecisive. The word comes from a sense of moving back and forth, much like something physically rocking or swaying, and in usage it also means wavering between choices or opinions. That dual sense makes it the best fit for “to sway physically, to be indecisive.”

Tacit points to something understood without being stated, so it’s about implied meaning, not movement or indecision. Veracity is about truthfulness or accuracy, which has nothing to do with motion or hesitation. Verbose describes someone who uses too many words, not any sense of movement or indecision.
