Question

In the following question, choose the word which is the exact OPPOSITE of the given word: ENORMOUS

• A. Soft
• B. Average
• C. Tiny
• D. Weak

Hint:

When finding antonyms, focus on the exact attribute of the word—in this case, size—not other unrelated qualities.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understand the meaning of “Enormous.”
The word “enormous” means very large in size, quantity, or degree—synonyms include huge, massive, immense, gigantic.
Step 2: Identify the exact opposite.
The antonym must convey the idea of being very small in size or scale. Among the given options, only “Tiny” directly expresses the opposite of “Enormous.”
Step 3: Eliminate incorrect options.
- “Soft” refers to texture, not size—irrelevant.
- “Average” means moderate or typical, not necessarily opposite to large.
- “Weak” refers to strength, not size.
Thus, “Tiny” perfectly matches the requirement of being the exact opposite of “Enormous.”
\[ \boxed{\text{(c) Tiny}} \]
