Antonyms

Question:

Select the antonym of the given word.

HILARIOUS

Options:

Happy

Merry

Blithe

Sad

Correct Answer:

Sad

Explanation:

The antonym of the word "hilarious" is sad.

  • Hilarious means "extremely funny or amusing."
  • Sad means "feeling or showing sorrow or unhappiness."

The other answer choices are not as good antonyms of "hilarious" because they do not have the same meaning of "not funny or amusing."

  • Happy means "feeling or showing pleasure or contentment."
  • Merry means "full of high spirits and good humor."
  • Blithe means "cheerful and carefree."
