Discussion
Complete the given word analogy :
local : global : : erratic : ?
Answer: B
The pair is completed by consistent.
'Local' and 'global' are opposites: one concerns a single place, the other the whole world. The second pair must also be opposites. 'Erratic' means irregular and unpredictable, so its opposite is 'consistent', meaning steady and regular.
'Believable', 'disputable' and 'dependable' are not opposites of erratic in this sense; 'dependable' is close, but it describes reliability of a person or thing rather than regularity, so the key takes 'consistent'.
