• A. Gloss
• B. Glottal stop
• C. Grammatical analysis
• D. Global comprehension

Answer: (A)

Gloss are brief notes added to a text to explain the meanings of words, typically found in the margins or between lines to help readers understand unfamiliar terms. This matches the description given, where marginal notes summarize word meanings for quick guidance while reading. The other terms refer to unrelated ideas: a glottal stop is a speech sound created by closing the vocal cords; grammatical analysis involves parsing sentence structure; global comprehension means overall understanding of the text. So the term that fits the described feature is gloss.
