Question

Choose the antonym of the word: "Victory"

• A. War
• B. Peace
• C. Defeat
• D. Failure

Hint:

Antonyms help understand opposite meanings.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The word "victory" refers to the success or triumph achieved in a struggle or competition. Thus, to find its antonym, we need a word that conveys the opposite meaning, which in this case would be a lack of success or a loss.

• War: This word refers to an armed conflict and is neither aligned with the concept of victory nor directly its opposite.
• Peace: A state of tranquility or freedom from conflict, which is not the direct opposite of "victory."
• Defeat: Meaning to lose or fail in achieving victory, making it the direct opposite.
• Failure: Generally refers to a lack of success but is broader than the specific context of losing a competition or battle compared to "defeat."

Correct Answer: Defeat
