Question:

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.

Tedious

Options:

Slack

Abstract

Gallant

Exciting

Correct Answer:

Exciting

Explanation:

The most appropriate antonym of the word tedious is exciting.

  • Tedious means "causing boredom or fatigue by being long, slow, or dull."
  • Exciting means "causing great interest, enthusiasm, or passion."

The other words do not have the same meaning as tedious, so they are not its antonyms.

  • Slack means "not working hard or not paying attention."
  • Abstract means "not concrete or specific; theoretical or conceptual."
  • Gallant means "brave, bold, and chivalrous."
