In the question below choose the option opposite in meaning to the word underlined:
The hostess greeted her guests in a very relaxed manner
Answer Details
The opposite of "relaxed" is "stiff." When someone is "relaxed," they are calm, comfortable, and not tense. On the other hand, when someone is "stiff," they are rigid, tense, and not at ease. Therefore, of the given options, "stiff" is the opposite of "relaxed."
"Energetic" refers to having or showing great enthusiasm or vitality. It does not convey an opposite meaning to "relaxed."
"Athletic" refers to being physically strong, active, and good at sports. It is not an antonym of "relaxed."
"Perplexed" means confused or puzzled, which is entirely different from "relaxed."
