Antonyms

Question:

Choose the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

ABUNDANT

Options:

Existence 

Divulge 

Sparse 

Combine

Correct Answer:

Sparse 

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word "abundant" is sparse.

  • Abundant means "present in large quantities; plentiful."
  • Sparse means "thinly scattered or distributed; not dense."

The other words do not have the same meaning as "abundant" and are therefore not antonyms.

  • Existence means "the fact or state of being."
  • Divulge means "to make known (something that should be kept secret)."
  • Combine means "to join or unite two or more things into a single entity."
