Choose the correct synonym.
Offend
Answer: C
The synonym of offend is annoy.
To offend someone is to hurt their feelings or make them displeased or upset, which is close to annoy, to make someone a little angry. Both are verbs.
Angry is related in meaning but is an adjective, so it cannot replace the verb offend. Protest means to object, which is what an offended person might do, and yearn means to long for something.
The related noun offence means an act that upsets someone or a crime, and offensive describes words or behaviour that cause offence.
