SSC Stenographer - 10/12/2024 (9:00 AM to 11:00 AM) • English • Q63

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the word ‘Concur’ from the given sentence.
Every time they met, he found it difficult to resist her odd magic.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4, i.e. “resist.”

- The verb “concur” means to agree or to be in harmony with someone. Common antonyms include “disagree,” “differ,” “oppose,” and notably “resist.” 

- Evaluating the sentence parts:

met – unrelated to agreement/disagreement.

found – irrelevant in this context.

difficult – describes a challenge but not the opposite of agreeing.

resist – means to fight against or oppose, making it the direct opposite of concur.
