Choose the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

PAROCHIAL

Shatter

Correct Answer:

Unrestricted

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word parochial is unrestricted.

  • Parochial means "narrow-minded or limited in outlook."
  • Unrestricted means "not subject to any limitations or restrictions."

The other words do not have the same meaning as unrestricted.

  • Gambit means "a clever or risky move in a game or negotiation."

  • Shatter means "to break or destroy something into pieces."
