Opposite Meaning requires you to find the difference between words.
In this quiz, you have to find TWO words, one from each group, that are the most OPPOSITE in meaning. Choose the correct answer from the four choices available. We all know words that mean different things, and words that are almost or 'kind of' opposite, but we are looking for the MOST opposite word each time. An example has been done for you. Enjoy Opposite Meaning Quiz 1!
Example: Choose the pair of words which are MOST opposite to each other, taking one word from each group of three. The correct answer is one of the four choices available.
(good luck today) is MOST opposite to (wish charm bad)
good wish
luck charm
today wish
good bad
Answer: The correct answer is good bad because good and bad are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer.
(good luck today) is MOST opposite to (wish charm bad)
good wish
luck charm
today wish
good bad
Answer: The correct answer is good bad because good and bad are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer.

(awful unhappy bad) is MOST opposite to (sad miserable wonderful)
(awful unhappy bad) is MOST opposite to (sad miserable wonderful)
awful sad
awful wonderful
unhappy sad
bad wonderful
This is because awful and wonderful are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer. Yes, bad and wonderful have opposite ideas, but they are not the MOST opposite words in the question
2 .
Choose the pair of words which are MOST opposite to each other, taking one word from each group of three. The correct answer is one of the four choices available.
(friendly comfortable outgoing) is MOST opposite to (popular shy quiet)
(friendly comfortable outgoing) is MOST opposite to (popular shy quiet)
comfortable shy
friendly shy
outgoing shy
friendly popular
This is because outgoing and shy are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer. Outgoing is not the same as being friendly, as you can be friendly and still be shy. You cannot be outgoing and shy
3 .
Choose the pair of words which are MOST opposite to each other, taking one word from each group of three. The correct answer is one of the four choices available.
(lie believe dishonesty) is MOST opposite to (convince argue honesty)
(lie believe dishonesty) is MOST opposite to (convince argue honesty)
dishonesty honesty
believe convince
lie argue
believe honesty
This is because dishonesty and honesty are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer. Lots of words use the prefix 'dis' to mean the opposite. Can you think of others where 'dis' makes a word mean its opposite? Some ideas of ours are hidden in an answer below
4 .
Choose the pair of words which are MOST opposite to each other, taking one word from each group of three. The correct answer is one of the four choices available.
(noticeable perhaps evident) is MOST opposite to (visible present unclear)
(noticeable perhaps evident) is MOST opposite to (visible present unclear)
noticeable unclear
perhaps present
evident unclear
evident visible
This is because evident and unclear are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer. Evident comes from the same root as the word 'evidence' and it means 'can be proven by evidence' or 'it is there to be seen'. Knowing this meaning, it is clear why 'unclear' is its opposite. 'Unclear' means something might be there, but cannot be shown to be there
5 .
Choose the pair of words which are MOST opposite to each other, taking one word from each group of three. The correct answer is one of the four choices available.
(usual constant frequent) is MOST opposite to (sometimes often irregular)
(usual constant frequent) is MOST opposite to (sometimes often irregular)
constant irregular
constant sometimes
frequent often
usual sometimes
This is because constant and irregular are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer. Constant means unchanging and without variety, while irregular means recurring but not in an unchanging way
6 .
Choose the pair of words which are MOST opposite to each other, taking one word from each group of three. The correct answer is one of the four choices available.
(nice ornate pretty) is MOST opposite to (plain lavish complex)
(nice ornate pretty) is MOST opposite to (plain lavish complex)
nice lavish
pretty complex
ornate plain
nice plain
This is because ornate and plain are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer. If something is ornate it is designed with complex patterns. However, 'complex' would not have worked as a correct answer because it is just an adjective that means complicated. Something could be complicated but not ornate

(work employ share) is MOST opposite to (team lose dismiss)

employ dismiss
work lose
share dismiss

(bank deposit shares) is MOST opposite to (lodge save withdraw)
bank lodge
deposit save
shares withdraw
deposit withdraw

explode inflate
anger relieve
explode implode
fury implode
This is because explode and implode are opposites, while the other words have no direct opposite on offer. These two words have the same root, 'plode'. The root of a word can be changed by adding a prefix, here 'ex' and 'im' are used to make the words opposite
