Solution

The answer is: Incorrectly

Explanation for each option:

  • Overly: This is not the correct meaning of the prefix "mis-." "Overly" suggests something done to an excessive degree, which does not fit the context of the word "mispronounced."
  • Fluently: This is also incorrect. "Fluently" means to do something smoothly and effortlessly, which is not related to the prefix "mis-."
  • Incorrectly: This is the correct meaning of the prefix "mis-." The prefix "mis-" is used to indicate something done wrongly or incorrectly, as in "mispronounced," which means pronounced incorrectly.
  • Rapidly: This is not the correct meaning of the prefix "mis-." "Rapidly" means done quickly, which does not fit the context of the word "mispronounced."
