Wet and dry are opposites or antonyms. How would you say 'wet' and 'dry' if you were speaking Spanish?
Language - Opposites Attract!
This Spanish Difficult Review quiz will take a look at opposites that attract such as wet and dry or fast and slow. If you have taken the Spanish Medium Review quiz under the same title that is found here, then you should find this quiz to be very familiar as it will work in exactly the same manner as the previous quiz.
As you may recall, there must be opposition in everything. How can you enjoy the good times if you haven’t experienced the bad times? How can you understand bitter if you haven’t tasted the sweet? How can you enjoy the heat if you haven’t experienced the cold? The list goes on and on. When you use words that are the exact opposite of each other or are nearly the exact opposite, those words are known as antonyms.
