Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Infinite

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

 The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Evanescent

Infinite means having no limits, bounds, or end; endless or limitless.

The meanings of the options are as follows.

  • Evanescent: This means something that is fleeting, vanishing, or temporary. It's the opposite of something that is infinite because it suggests something that doesn't last long.

  • Boundless: This means having no boundaries or limits, similar in meaning to "infinite." It is a synonym, not an antonym, of "infinite."

  • Unfathomable: This means something that is difficult or impossible to understand or measure. While it doesn't directly mean the opposite of infinite, it doesn't serve as a clear antonym either.

  • Absolute: This means something that is complete, total, or unconditional. It is not a direct antonym of "infinite" either, but it doesn't convey the idea of limitless or endless.

Hence the correct antonym would be Evanescent.
