Question:

Choose the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

DAINTY

Options:

Coarse

Existence 

Descend

Slump 

Correct Answer:

Coarse

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word "dainty" is coarse.

  • Dainty means "delicate and elegant."
  • Coarse means "lacking in refinement or delicacy."

The other words do not have the same meaning as "dainty" and are therefore not antonyms.

  • Existence means "the fact or state of being."
  • Descend means "to move or go down."
  • Slump means "to fall or sink suddenly or heavily."
