The correct antonym of the word phlegmatic is __________ .
Answer: A
The antonym of phlegmatic is Energetic.
Phlegmatic describes a person who is calm, slow to show emotion and hard to excite; the word comes from phlegm, the 'humour' once believed to make people sluggish. Its opposite is someone lively, excitable and full of energy.
Apathetic (showing no interest or feeling), indifferent (not caring either way) and stoical (enduring hardship without showing feelings) are all close in meaning to phlegmatic, so they are near-synonyms, not antonyms.
