Antonyms

Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Sturdy

Options:

Delicate

Dragging

Tiny

Drab

Correct Answer:

Delicate

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word sturdy is delicate.

  • Sturdy means "firm, strong, and well-built."
  • Delicate means "finely made or of fine quality; not strong or robust."

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

  • Dragging means "moving slowly and heavily."
  • Tiny means "very small."
  • Drab means "lacking in interest or brightness; dull."
