SSC CGL 2024 PYQ — Question 21

SSC CGL - 11 Sep 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q21

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the following word.

Forbid

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Allow.

Allow is the correct antonym of Forbid because Forbid means to prohibit or deny permission, while Allow means to permit or give consent. The two words represent opposite actions, making Allow the most fitting antonym. The other options, Prohibit, Call, and Forsake, do not convey the opposite meaning of forbidding.
