Of from or characteristic of Asia, especially East Asia

A Oriental Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B Occidental Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C Hesperian Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D Western Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Oriental (Correct Answer): The term "Oriental" is used to describe things that are of, from, or characteristic of the Eastern part of the world, especially Asia. It is commonly associated with East Asian cultures and regions.   Occidental (Incorrect Option): "Occidental" is the opposite of "Oriental." It refers to things of, from, or characteristic of the Western part of the world, particularly Europe and the Americas. Therefore, it does not fit the context of describing Asia, especially East Asia.   Hesperian (Incorrect Option): "Hesperian" generally refers to the Western part of the world, especially in geographical terms. Like "Occidental," it is not suitable for describing Asia, and it doesn't specifically indicate East Asia.   Western (Incorrect Option): "Western" is used to describe things of, from, or characteristic of the Western part of the world. It is the opposite of "Oriental" and is not specific to Asia or East Asia.
