Key Notes :

What are Antonyms?

Antonyms are words that have opposite meanings.

Think of it like a seesaw! When one side goes up, the other side goes down. Antonyms are like that – when one word means something, its antonym means the complete opposite!

For example:

• Hot is the opposite of Cold
• Happy is the opposite of Sad
• Big is the opposite of Small
