Question

Select the antonym for the following word from the options given below:

HUMBLE

• A. Meek
• B. Wilful
• C. Yielding
• D. True

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Wilful

Antonyms are words that have contrasting, or opposite, meanings.

Choice B is correct. Humble means 'showing or being modest' the opposite being willful meaning 'deliberately doing a harmful act'. For example: He willfully broke the glass door in my house. Choice A means the same as humble. Choice C means 'ready to bend'. Choice D means 'being honest'. Choice A, C and D are wrong.
