Explanation
To 'adjourn' means to suspend or postpone a meeting or proceeding to a later time. It's commonly used in formal contexts like court sessions, meetings, or conferences that break and resume later.
AI explanation
'Adjourn' means to suspend or postpone a meeting, session, or proceeding until a later time (e.g., 'the court adjourned until Monday'). This matches option 3 exactly. 'Done routinely and with little care' describes something like 'perfunctory,' 'branch out' relates to 'ramify' or similar words, and 'conduct inciting rebellion' describes 'sedition' — none of these match the specific meaning of 'adjourn.'
