To determine the correctly spelled word from the given options, let's analyze each option:

1. The option "garulous" is incorrect. It appears to be a misspelling of the intended word.
2. The option "garruloes" is incorrect. It adds an unnecessary and incorrect ending to the word.
3. The option "garrulues" is incorrect. It contains an incorrect combination of letters at the end.
