Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.
ScantyAnswer & explanation
Answer: A) Abundant
Answer: 1 (Abundant)
Solution (Correct Option - 1: Abundant):
The word “scanty” means insufficient, meagre, or very little in amount or size.
Its most appropriate antonym is “abundant”, which means plentiful, in large quantity, or more than enough.
So, if something is scanty (like scanty rainfall), it is not enough. The opposite is abundant (plenty of rain).
Why other options are incorrect:
Expedient – means convenient or practical, but not necessarily morally right (सुविधाजनक); unrelated to quantity.
Nasty – means unpleasant or offensive (घिनौना), not the opposite of scanty.
Paltry – means very small or meagre, which is actually a synonym, not antonym of scanty.
