SSC CGL - 19 Sep 2024 - Shift 1 • English • Q17

Select the most appropriate synonym of the given word.
Garnish

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Decorate.

 

"Garnish" means to decorate or embellish, especially in the context of food or a presentation.

"Dwindle" means to decrease or diminish, which is unrelated.

"Tarnish" refers to something becoming dull or losing its shine, which is the opposite of garnish.

"Blemish" means to spoil or damage, which is also not a synonym.

Therefore, "decorate" best matches the meaning of "garnish."
