What are antonyms?

Antonyms are defined as words that have opposite meanings. For instance, words like "hot" and "cold" or "happy" and "sad" illustrate this concept well. Understanding antonyms helps enrich vocabulary and enables more precise expression in language. Recognizing these opposite relationships between words is crucial for better comprehension and communication. The other definitions, such as words that explain a concept, words that have the same meanings, or words that describe feelings, do not accurately capture the essence of what antonyms are. Each of those options represents different aspects of language but does not align with the specific definition of antonyms.
