The correct answer is Option (4) - favourable
Explanation:
- "Ominous" means giving a sign of something bad or threatening.
- "Favourable" has a positive connotation, meaning support, goodwill, or something beneficial, which is the opposite of ominous.
Let's look at why the other options are incorrect:
- Foreboding: means a feeling that something bad will happen; ominous. This is a synonym, not an antonym.
- Vague: means not clear or definite. This is unrelated to the meaning of ominous.
- Exotic: means originating in or characteristic of a distant foreign country. This is also unrelated to the meaning of ominous.
