Relegate means to consign or dismiss to an inferior rank or position. While 'banish' is often used for people, it is the closest synonym among the choices. 'Authorize' and 'celebrate' have unrelated meanings.

To curtail means to reduce in extent or quantity, or to impose a restriction on something. 'To cut short' is a direct synonym. 'Subvert' means to undermine power, and 'control' is too broad.

Prosperity is the correct spelling, derived from the Latin 'prosperitas'. The other options are incorrect phonetic variations that misplace vowels like 'a' or 'e' in the middle or end of the word.

"Flabbergast" is the correct spelling, meaning to surprise greatly. It requires a double 'b'. Distractors use a single 'b' or change the 'e' to an 'a', which are incorrect.

"Insomnia" is the correct spelling. It is a straightforward transcription of the Latin word for sleeplessness. Distractors add unnecessary vowels like 'i' or 'e' within or at the end of the word.

"Questionnaire" is the correct spelling. It is characterized by a double 'n' and the "-aire" suffix. Distractors typically miss the second 'n' or the final 'e'.

The adverb form of 'immediate' drops the final 'e' and adds '-ly'. The correct spelling is 'immediately' with double 'm' and double 'l' after dropping the 'e'. Options A, B, and C all have incorrect letter patterns or drop essential letters.

"Interrogation" is the correct spelling. It features a double 'r' and the "-tion" suffix. Distractors fail by using a single 'r', double 't', or the "-sion" suffix.

"Obliterate" is the correct spelling. It follows the Latin root 'obliteratus'. Distractors add extra 'i's or change the 'e' to an 'a', which are common phonetic mistakes.

The verb 'persevere' ends in '-ere' and maintains this spelling pattern when converted to a noun. The correct spelling 'perseverance' has the middle 'e' before 'r' and ends with '-ance'. Options A, B, and C incorrectly swap or double letters.
