Antonyms are words or phrases that mean the opposite of another word or phrase. A good way of testing if a word is an antonym is by replacing your original word with it in a sentence. If the sentence makes sense but is also the opposite of what it said originally, then congratulations, you’ve found an antonym! A good understanding and sound knowledge of antonyms is a great strength for students in supporting their writing.
