Antonyms

Question:

Choose the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Stingy

Options:

Generous

Cheerful

Greedy

Polite

Correct Answer:

Generous

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word stingy is generous.

  • Stingy means "unwilling to give or spend money or other resources."
  • Generous means "willing to give or do things freely and unselfishly."

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

  • Cheerful means "happy and full of good spirits."
  • Greedy means "having or showing an excessive or rapacious desire for wealth, possessions, or power."
  • Polite means "having or showing good manners and courtesy."
