Question

What is the antonym of the following word:

Precise

Options
  • A

    Concise

  • B

    Comprehensive

  • C

    Vague

  • D

    Explanatory

Explanation

The word 'precise' means marked by exactness and accuracy. The antonym would be a word that indicates a lack of clarity or detail. 'Vague' is the correct antonym as it signifies something unclear or not well-defined. 'Concise' and 'comprehensive' do not directly oppose the quality of being precise, and 'explanatory' relates to providing explanations rather than precision.

'Concise' refers to expressing much in few words, which is not inherently the opposite of being exact or precise.

'Comprehensive' means covering all or nearly all elements or aspects, which is not the opposite of 'precise'.

'Vague' means not clearly expressed or lacking in detail, which directly opposes the clear and detailed nature of 'precise'.

'Explanatory' is related to providing explanations, not directly opposing precision.
