Choose the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Blunt

Options:

sharp

rusted

dull

rounded

Correct Answer:

sharp

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word blunt is sharp.

  • Blunt means having a rounded or dull edge or point.
  • Sharp means having a fine or pointed edge or point.

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

  • Rusted means having become covered in rust.
  • Dull means not sharp or bright.
  • Rounded means having a smooth, curved edge or surface.
