Explanation

Blemish refers to a defect, imperfection, or flaw that mars the appearance or quality of something. It describes marks, spots, or damage that detracts from perfection. Hallow means to make holy, gaffe is an embarrassing mistake, and linger means to stay - only defect matches the meaning of an imperfection.
