Correct Answer: Talking nonsense


Solution : The correct answer is the third option.

The idiom "talking through his hat" is an expression used to indicate that someone is talking or making statements without possessing proper knowledge or understanding of the subject. It suggests that the person is speaking nonsense, often confidently or assertively, but the information they are providing is inaccurate or baseless.

Therefore, the correct answer is talking nonsense.
