Antonyms

Question:

Select the most appropriate antonym of the given word.

Comic

Options:

Tickle

Happy

Tragic

Jubilant

Correct Answer:

Tragic

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word comic is tragic.

  • Comic means "causing or meant to cause laughter."
  • Tragic means "causing or characterized by extreme distress or sorrow."

The other words do not have the same meaning as comic, so they are not its antonyms.

  • Tickle means "to cause a slight, light, and often pleasurable sensation of physical excitement by touching or stimulating a sensitive part of the body."
  • Happy means "feeling or showing pleasure or contentment."
  • Jubilant means "showing great happiness or triumph."
