Question

Select the word which has the opposite meaning of the given word:

Uniformity

• A. Hostility
• B. Dissimilarity
• C. Concordance
• D. Dissidence

Answer 1

The correct option is B Dissimilarity

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

Choice B is correct. Uniformity means 'remaining the same in all cases' the opposite being 'dissimilarity', which means 'not the same at all'. For example: Although both the plants look alike the flowers are dissimilar in colour and form.

Choice A means ' unfriendliness' Choice C means 'in agreement of consistent' Choice D means 'protest against official policy'. Choice A, C and D are wrong.
