SSC CPO - 9 Nov 2022 - Shift 1 • English • Q41

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Dull

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

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

  • The most appropriate antonym of the word "dull" is "bright."
  • "Dull" can refer to something that lacks brightness, vividness, or interest. In this context, "bright" is the direct opposite, meaning something vivid, full of light, or lively.
  • The other options do not fit as well: "coloured" relates to having colour but not necessarily being the opposite of dull, "clever" pertains to intelligence or quick thinking, and "youthful" refers to being young or having the qualities of youth.

Therefore, "bright" is the most suitable antonym for "dull."
