Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Marvellous

Options:

Adverse

Terrible

tolerable

Mythical

Correct Answer:

Terrible

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word marvellous is terrible.

  • Marvellous means "causing great surprise or wonder; extraordinary."
  • Terrible means "extremely bad or unpleasant; causing great fear or distress."

The other words have different meanings to marvellous, so they are not good antonyms.

  • Adverse means "unfavorable or unfavorable."
  • Tolerable means "able to be endured or allowed."
  • Mythical means "existing only in legends or folk tales."
