Vocabulary 02 - Antonyms 2
‘While my friend Sagarika is a FOOLISH girl, my other friend Ayesha is a SMART girl.’ - What do you gather from this sentence? Clearly you think that Sagarika is almost the exact opposite of Ayesha. The words in capitals are words which have opposite meanings to one another. Another word to describe the relationship between the two words is antonym.
Of course, in this description of the two girls you could say one could be more foolish or less foolish and similarly the other girl could be smarter or less smart. Such words, where there is a relationship that can be graded, are called graded antonyms. Examples of graded antonyms include empty/full, calm/tense and abundant/scanty. There are other types of antonyms that grace the English language. They are the relational antonyms and the complementary antonyms.
