Question

what is the meaning of the word in bold?
when you cite another source, you may place information in quotes and copy it verbatim, or you can restate it in your own words.
with great care
in a literal sense
word for word
free from errors

Explanation:

The context describes citing a source by copying the exact words in quotes, which matches the definition of "verbatim". The other options do not align with this context: "with great care" refers to carefulness, "in a literal sense" relates to literal meaning, and "free from errors" refers to accuracy, none of which describe exact word-for-word copying.

Answer:

word for word
