Choose the correct word to complete the sentence given below:

Words ______ me when I want to describe the urgency of the soldier to embrace his daughter after being away for more than two years on the front-lines.

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

'Elude' means to escape or fail someone; 'words elude me' is the standard expression for being unable to express something. 'Allude' means to refer indirectly, while 'excite' and 'incite' mean to stir up, none of which fits the sense of speechlessness.
