Antonyms

Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

DISABLE

Options:

Disapprove

Disallow

Refuse

Permit

Correct Answer:

Permit

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 4. Permit.

"Disable" typically means to impair or make ineffective, especially in terms of physical or mental abilities.

The antonym we're looking for should describe an action that involves allowing or enabling something.

"Permit" fits this description perfectly. It means to allow or give authorization for something to happen, contrasting with "disable," which implies making something unable to happen.

Therefore, "permit" is the appropriate antonym for "disable" because it represents the opposite action—allowing or enabling instead of impairing or making ineffective.
