Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Novel

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

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

Novel means something that is new or unusual. Its antonym would be something old or traditional.

Tip: In such cases, ancient may also seem to be an antonym of the word 'novel'. However, ancient also includes something that no longer exists. Thus, the word 'traditional' fits best in this context.

Hence, Traditional is the correct answer.
