Step-by-step explanation:

Mono (alone) in Latin means uni and uni In Latin means (one) so knowing that (Mono)-logue is going to be spoken by one character but usually towards someone weather a audience at a play or another character in it

Solus(alone) and Loqui(speak) are the origins of Soliloquy which means thoughts aloud which would mean thinking to his self spoken aloud regardless if someone hears it or not

Answer:

(A as in Apple)

Can’t be B or C now d seems to be partially right but it doesn’t have one in monologue but A definitely more correct than the others
