    Solution

    The word ‘discern’ is correct here. It means ‘to see, recognize, or understand something that is not clear.’ Desire- to want something, especially strongly. Diffuse- to (cause something to) spread in many directions. Decease- a person's death. After yesterday’s discussion, we were able to discern who was going to be promoted.
