Every nook and cranny means every small place. This answer is correct because the expression has a fixed figurative meaning in English. In an SSC idiom question, students should match the whole phrase with its accepted meaning rather than translate each word separately.

• Classroom example: Every nook and cranny can refer to a situation involving every small place.
• Story example: A writer may use Every nook and cranny when describing a situation involving every small place.
• Exam example: When a sentence contains Every nook and cranny, choose the meaning “every small place.”
