- SSC Steno 2026 T-1 Synonyms
Select the synonym of Brief.
Answer & explanation
Answer: A) Short
Meaning: brief = short in length or lasting only a little time; concise *(संक्षिप्त, थोड़े समय का)*.
short = not long, over quickly *(छोटा, संक्षिप्त)* — a brief speech is a short speech.
Why the others are wrong.
• long = lasting a great time, extending far *(लंबा, दीर्घ)* — the antonym of brief.
• wide = broad from side to side *(चौड़ा)* — it measures breadth, not length or time.
• deep = going far down from the surface *(गहरा)* — it measures depth.
*"In brief" means "in short" — the two words are twins.*
