"Dipesh loves to answer his boss’s questions in tactful ways."

A.

Affordable

B.

Humble

C.

Ambiguous

D.

Undiplomatic

Correct option is D


Explanation of the Correct Answer:

· The correct antonym is "Undiplomatic," which means lacking tact, being blunt or insensitive.
Example Sentences:
· She gave a tactful reply to avoid offending her colleague.
· His undiplomatic remarks created tension during the meeting.
Other options:
· (a) "Affordable" → Incorrect because it relates to cost, not behavior.

Thus, the correct answer is (d) "Undiplomatic."
