AbominableAnswer & explanation
Answer: B) Admirable
Answer: Admirable
Explanation:
Abominable means very bad, hateful, or disgusting (घृणित / अत्यंत बुरा).
• Its opposite is admirable, which means deserving respect or approval (प्रशंसनीय).
• Worthy means deserving, but it’s not a direct antonym.
• Delectable means delicious or delightful (मनभावन), which is positive but not the exact opposite.
• Detestable is a synonym, not an antonym — it also means hateful (घिनौना).
Thus, the most precise antonym is admirable.
