Question:

Choose the appropriate synonym of the word - "EQUIVOCAL"

Options:

bequest

intrude

uncertain

cling

Correct Answer:

uncertain

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (3) - uncertain

The correct synonym for "equivocal" is "uncertain."

  • Equivocal means ambiguous or unclear in meaning, often leaving room for multiple interpretations.
  • Uncertain similarly conveys a lack of clarity or definiteness, making it the closest match in meaning.
  • The other options do not share this meaning:
    • Bequest refers to something left in a will.
    • Intrude means to enter without permission.
    • Cling means to hold onto something tightly.
