Correct Option - 1

The incorrect spelling among the above options is ‘pronounciation’. Its correct spelling is ‘pronunciation’.

The confusion arises because the verb form 'pronounce' is spelled differently compared to the noun form 'pronunciation'.

Let us find out the meanings of the following words:

Pronunciation – The method of pronouncing a word.

Harassment – Aggressive application of pressure or inducing fear and intimidation in someone.

Accost – Approach and address someone aggressively/boldly.

Reprieve – Cancelling or postponing the punishment for a mistake/crime.

Thus, option 1 is the correct answer.
