SSC MTS 2023 PYQ — Question 46

SSC MTS - 11 May 2023 - Shift 2 • English • Q46

Choose the word that is opposite in meaning to the given word.

Awful

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Wonderful.

"Awful" denotes anything exceptionally awful or unpleasant. The antonym, "wonderful," denotes very nice or agreeable.

The other options—pitiful, horrible, and grim—all have negative connotations, leaving "wonderful" the only word with a positive meaning, and hence the polar opposite of "awful."
