Choose the word that is opposite in meaning to the given word.

Disregard

Options:

Hidden 

Curiosity 

Demote 

Split 

Correct Answer:

Curiosity 

Explanation:

The correct answer is option 3. Curiosity.

"Disregard" means to pay no attention to something or to treat something as unimportant or unworthy of consideration.

The antonym we're looking for should describe the opposite action, which would involve paying attention to something or considering it important.

"Curiosity" fits this description perfectly. It refers to a strong desire to know or learn something, implying attention and interest.

Therefore, "curiosity" is the appropriate antonym for "disregard" because it represents the opposite action—paying attention or showing interest instead of ignoring or treating as unimportant.
