Select the most appropriate option to substitute the underlined word segment in the given sentence: The wedding was put on until January.

Question

Accepted Answer

The phrase 'put on' means to organize or hold an event, but in the sentence 'The wedding was put on until January,' the intended meaning is that the wedding was postponed or delayed until January. The correct phrasal verb for postponing or delaying an event is 'put off.' 'Put in' means to insert or contribute, 'put down' means to insult or write down, and 'put up' means to provide accommodation or tolerate. Therefore, 'put off' is the most appropriate substitution.
