What does the term 'adjacent' mean?

Regarding with disgust and hatred
Next to or adjoining something else
Talking with excessive pride
Moving quickly and easily

The correct answer is: Next to or adjoining something else

The term 'adjacent' means next to or adjoining something else. This definition illustrates the relationship between objects or spaces that are positioned close to each other without any intervening elements. For instance, adjacent buildings share a common wall or property lines. Understanding this term is vital in various contexts, especially in geography, architecture, and discussions about physical proximity. The other options represent entirely different meanings and do not align with the definition of 'adjacent'. One describes an emotional response (disgust and hatred), another relates to boasting behavior (excessive pride), and the last speaks to a specific movement quality (moving quickly and easily). None of these accurately reflect the concept of adjacency, which emphasizes closeness and physical presence rather than emotional state or manner of action.
