Explanation:

“coined, abstract” is the correct set of words that fit perfectly into both the sentences adding appropriate meanings to both the sentences. The word “coined” means invented (a new word or phrase). The word has the specific meaning which can well be connected with both the sentences separately as both of them talk about the invention of a new term. The other word, “abstract” means dealing with ideas rather than events. The word adds a logical meaning to both the sentences. Hence (d) is the correct option. Forged means created (something) strong, enduring, or successful. Devised means planned or invented (a complex procedure, system, or mechanism) by careful thought. Abridged means shortened (a book, film, speech, etc.) without losing the sense.
