Q188
EnglishVocabulary: Meaning, Synonyms & Antonyms
Choose the word in the option that is farthest in meaning to the capitalised word. WINSOME
- a.INSIPID
- b.UNATTRACTIVE
- c.PREJUDICE
- d.OPPOSITION
Answer: (B) UNATTRACTIVE
'Winsome' means attractive, charming or appealing in a fresh, innocent way (a winsome smile), so the word farthest in meaning - its antonym - is 'unattractive'. 'Insipid' means tasteless or dull (the opposite of flavourful or lively); 'prejudice' (bias) and 'opposition' are nouns unrelated in sense, and 'winsome' has nothing to do with winning. Synonyms: engaging, endearing, charming, comely; antonyms: repulsive, unappealing.
