Antonyms

Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM for the given word.
Receive

Options:

Give

Dispatch

Deliver

Welcome

Correct Answer:

Give

Explanation:

 

The most appropriate antonym for the word receive is give.

  • Receive means to get or accept something that is offered or given.
  • Give means to offer or present something to someone else.

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

  • Dispatch means to send someone or something off on a journey or errand.
  • Deliver means to take something to a particular place or person.
  • Welcome means to greet someone or something in a friendly and enthusiastic way.
