Select the correct antonym of the word BLATANT from among the words given below :
Answer: B
The antonym of BLATANT given in the key is Quiet.
Blatant means glaringly obvious and done openly without shame (a blatant lie), and in an older sense loud, noisy and offensive. The options are built on that second sense, so its opposite is quiet, unobtrusive and restrained.
Loud is close to a synonym of blatant in that sense, not an antonym. Decency is a noun meaning propriety, not the opposite of an adjective, and darken is a verb meaning to make dark. Neither fits as an antonym.
