English Grammar - Synonyms and Antonyms

Synonym of 'hate' is :


Options:

  1. docile
  2. creep
  3. anger
  4. dislike

Right Answer: dislike

The word 'hate' means to feel a strong dislike or aversion towards someone or something. Among the given options, 'dislike' carries almost the same sense and is therefore its closest synonym, although 'hate' expresses a much stronger degree of feeling. 'Docile' means obedient and easy to manage; 'creep' means to move slowly and quietly, or an unpleasant person; and 'anger' is a temporary emotional state of displeasure rather than a settled aversion. Since a synonym must match the meaning and not merely the emotion, 'dislike' is the correct answer.
