Directions (21-21) : A word has been given in each question and has been used in the sentences given below. Identify the statements where the word has been used in a contextually and grammatically correct manner.

Execute
(i) The budget constraints execute the company from hiring additional employees this year.
(ii) Every day you fail to execute the task, the penalty for failure worsens.
(iii) A debtor who is not insolvent may also execute a deed in favor of his creditors generally.

The correct answer is Both (ii) & (iii).

Let us analyze the word "Execute" and its usage in each sentence:

Meaning of "Execute":
1. To carry out, perform, or put into effect (a plan, order, task, or course of action).
2. To make a legal document valid by signing or sealing it (e.g., executing a deed, contract, or will).
3. To carry out a sentence of death on a legally condemned person.

Analysis of Sentence (i):
"The budget constraints execute the company from hiring additional employees this year."
• Incorrect: Here, "execute" is used incorrectly. The intended word is likely "prevent", "restrict", "hinder", or "preclude" (meaning to stop or constrain someone from doing something). Budget constraints cannot "execute" a company from hiring.

Analysis of Sentence (ii):
"Every day you fail to execute the task, the penalty for failure worsens."
• Correct: "Execute" here means to carry out or perform a task. The usage is contextually and grammatically accurate.

Analysis of Sentence (iii):
"A debtor who is not insolvent may also execute a deed in favor of his creditors generally."
• Correct: In legal terminology, to "execute a deed" means to formally sign and validate a legal agreement. The usage is appropriate and correct.

Therefore, the word "Execute" is used correctly in statements (ii) and (iii) only.
