Explanation
Nuance refers to a subtle difference in or shade of meaning, expression, or sound. It's about delicate distinctions that aren't immediately obvious. Option A correctly captures this definition. The other options define unrelated words: petulant (bad-tempered), pinion (restrain), and modus operandi (method of operating).
