Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.
Tranquil

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Unquiet.

Context: The word tranquil means calm, peaceful, or free from disturbance. The antonym should express the opposite idea — disturbance, restlessness, or lack of peace.

Meaning of the words:

  • Serene – calm and peaceful, synonym, not antonym.

  • Composed – calm, self-controlled, synonym, not antonym.

  • Unquiet – restless, disturbed, lacking peace, perfect antonym.

  • Shabby – worn out or in poor condition, unrelated.

Correct word: Unquiet

Final Sentence: The opposite of tranquil is unquiet.

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
