Antonyms

Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Maverick

Options:

Custodian

Versatility

Conformist

Brilliance

Correct Answer:

Conformist

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word "maverick" is conformist.

  • Maverick means "a person who does not conform to the usual or accepted way of doing things."
  • Conformist means "a person who conforms to the usual or accepted way of doing things."

The other answer choices are not as good antonyms of "maverick" because they do not have the same meaning of "conforming to the usual or accepted way of doing things."

  • Custodian means "a person who has the care and protection of something."
  • Versatility means "the ability to adapt to different situations or activities."
  • Brilliance means "great mental or intellectual power."
