Hi, use the word given in bracket to rewrite the following sentence so that it has the same meaning as the original one I'm not considering that suggestion (CUT) 'Cut' can be used in the sense of 'remove', often when speaking of a list. So, I think perhaps the expected answer is I've cut that suggestion (from the list). However, it doesn't sound right to me if there is no 'list' in the context.
