Which sentence accurately uses the homophone “elude”?

Answer
A
I heard him elude to some sort of plan.
B
Sometimes, she will elude to her younger years.
C
Perhaps you could elude to the correct answer.
D
If we think enough, we will elude punishment.

Explanation

“Elude” means to escape from or avoid something. In “we will elude punishment,” it means they will avoid being punished, so D uses the word correctly. The other choices need “allude,” which means to refer to something indirectly.
