antonym
의미: A word that has the opposite meaning of another word. For example, 'hot' is an antonym of 'cold.'
Antonyms are fundamental to vocabulary study and are classified into several types: gradable antonyms (hot/cold), complementary antonyms (alive/dead), and relational antonyms (teacher/student). Understanding antonyms helps learners build a richer vocabulary and appreciate subtle distinctions in meaning. The term is contrasted with 'synonym,' and both are staples of language examinations and dictionary usage.
