• not liking death

Answer 1

The meaning of "immortal" is more accurately described as "not subject to death" or "never dying." Therefore, among the given options, "not liking death" does not capture the true essence of the word. "Immortal" refers to the state of being free from death, rather than an emotional response to it.
