Answer 2

c. freudian slip

Parapraxis also described as Freudian slip, is a fallacy in language, consciousness, or natural response that transpires due to the intervention of an inanimate subdued choice or private train of reflection. The opinion is a component of conventional psychotherapy. Classical examples involve slips of the language, but the psychoanalytic approach also comprises temporary forgettings, mislaying and dropping of objects.
