Question:

Select the most appropriate antonym of the given word.

Crooked

Options:

Curved

Straight

Spiral

Bent

Correct Answer:

Straight

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word crooked is straight.

  • Crooked means "not straight or even; bent or twisted."
  • Straight means "not curved or bent; having a line or course that is not curved."

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

  • Curved means "bent or bent in a smooth, continuous curve."
  • Spiral means "having the form of a coil or helix."
  • Bent means "curved or twisted out of shape."
