9. Select the correct meaning of the given word. Bombilate (verb)

Explanation

The word "bombilate" is a verb that means to make a humming or buzzing noise. This can be inferred from the context of the other options, which do not accurately define the word. "To continuously bomb someone or something" and "to seriously hesitate" do not relate to the concept of making a noise. "To make a bombing noise" implies a loud explosive sound rather than a humming or buzzing noise. Therefore, the correct meaning of "bombilate" is to make a humming or buzzing noise.
