The correct answer is Option (2) - retain
- Relinquish means to give up, let go, or surrender something.
- The antonym "retain" means to keep or hold onto something, which is the opposite of relinquishing.
OTHER OPTIONS
- "rejection" → Means refusing or dismissing something, not directly related.
- "leftover" → Refers to remaining or extra items, not an antonym of relinquish.
- "console" → Means to comfort someone, not related in meaning to relinquish.
