Question

In the following question, out of the four given alternatives, select the one which best expresses the meaning of the given word.
Rigid

A.

Limber

B.

Lax

C.

Inflexible

D.

Pliant

Correct option is C


The correct answer is “inflexible."
Explanation:
· "Rigid" means "stiff, not able to bend or change easily."
Synonyms: inflexible, strict, unyielding, firm, stiff. Antonyms: flexible, lenient, yielding, soft, adaptable.
· "Inflexible" is the best synonym because it also means "unable to bend or be changed easily."
Meanings of other options:
· “Limber" – Means "flexible or able to bend easily" (opposite of "rigid").
· “Lax" – Means "not strict or firm", which is also an opposite meaning.
· “Pliant" – Means "easily bent or influenced" (opposite of "rigid").
Examples:
The rules at school are rigid and must be followed strictly.
His rigid attitude makes it difficult to work with him.
Corrected Sentence:
"Rigid means inflexible or unbending."
