Select the Antonym (most opposite meaning) of the word in capital letters.

Sofi had told him when he dumped her in the DIVINE World.

  • A.earthly
  • B.worldly
  • C.devilish
  • D.fleshy

Answer: A

The keyed antonym of DIVINE is earthly.

Divine means of or from God, heavenly. Its direct opposite is earthly, belonging to this earth and human life, as in the contrast between heavenly and earthly things.

Worldly is close but leans towards being concerned with material things or being sophisticated. Devilish is the opposite of saintly or good rather than of heavenly, and fleshy means plump, having much flesh. So 'earthly' is the best opposite of 'divine' in a phrase about a world.
