Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Better

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

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

Given word: Better
Meaning: Of a higher standard or quality; more favorable or improved.
Antonym: Worse

Meaning:  If something is “worse,” it's a decline in quality or condition. 

Meanings of other options:

  • Verse refers to a line of poetry or song. 
  • Best is a superlative form of “better", 
  • Good is positive but not directly the opposite of “better”—in fact, “better” is the comparative form of “good.”

Hence, the chosen option is correct.
