Question

In the following question, out of the four alternatives, choose the word which is opposite in meaning to the given word and click the button corresponding to it. Despise

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C — Explanation: Despise means to feel a strong dislike or contempt for someone because you regard them as unworthy or bad. Examples: "The brothers despised each other." "Rita despised her father for the way he treated her mother." The choice "Hate" has the same basic meaning as "despise" (strong dislike), so it is not the opposite. Cherish means to love, protect, and care for someone or something. Examples: "I cherish the ideals of my father." "My daughter is very special to me and I will cherish her forever." Therefore, the opposite of "despise" is "cherish," so the correct answer is the choice "Cherish." Tip: Some notable antonyms of "despise": admire adore respect
