Question:

From the options given below, choose the pair that carries the same relationship as -

Nourish : Nurture

Options:

Vigilant : Negligent

Vulgar : Ungraceful

Dull : Bright

Wicked: Noble

Correct Answer:

Vulgar : Ungraceful

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → Vulgar : Ungraceful

"Nourish" and "Nurture" are near-synonyms, both referring to supporting growth or development. Similarly, "Vulgar" and "Ungraceful" are also close in meaning, both suggesting a lack of refinement or elegance.

Option (1) → Vigilant : Negligent: These are opposites, not similar.
Option (3) → Dull : Bright: Also opposites.
Option (4) → Wicked : Noble: Again, opposites in meaning.
