Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.
Relentless
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The most appropriate antonym of the word "relentless" is yielding.
- Relentless means "showing no mercy or compassion; unyielding."
- Yielding means "giving way to pressure or force; submissive."
The other words do not have the same meaning as "relentless" and are therefore not antonyms.
- Tenacious means "holding firmly to something; not easily given up."
- Determined means "having a firm purpose or resolve; not giving up easily."
- Swarming means "moving or appearing in large numbers."
