Which phrase describes a hobby related to stamps?

• A. Stamp Collecting
• B. Collecting Stamps
• C. Coin Collecting
• D. Stamp Designing

Answer: (A)

Stamps are collected as a hobby, and the standard name for that hobby is stamp collecting. This two-word term is the common label used in clubs, catalogs, and everyday talk, and it precisely describes the activity of gathering and organizing stamps from different countries and eras. While “collecting stamps” would convey the action, it isn’t the established hobby name. The other options point to different ideas—coin collecting is about coins, and stamp designing is about creating stamps, not collecting them. So the best fit for describing the hobby related to stamps is stamp collecting.
