PLEBEIAN
Answer: C
The word opposite in meaning to PLEBEIAN is Prominent.
Plebeian comes from the plebs, the common people of ancient Rome as distinct from the patrician aristocracy. As an adjective it means belonging to the common people, ordinary or lowly. Of the choices, prominent, meaning important, distinguished or well known, is the one that stands at the opposite end.
Commoner is a synonym of plebeian, not its opposite. Humble and impoverished describe low status or poverty, which are close to the meaning of plebeian rather than contrary to it.
