Discussion
Select the Antonym of the word occurring in the sentence in capital letters as per the context from the given words or group of words.
The guest made DEROGATORY remarks about the food he was served.
Answer: B
The antonym of DEROGATORY is complimentary.
Derogatory remarks are critical and belittling. Complimentary remarks express praise and admiration, the direct opposite.
Interesting and unnecessary say nothing about whether the remarks were critical or approving, and cheerful describes the speaker's mood rather than what the remarks said about the food.
The word comes from 'derogate', to take away from someone's worth or standing.
