I'll work through this antonyms worksheet step by step.
Part 1: Match words with their opposites
Let me match each word on the left with its opposite from the right:
1.
lost - The opposite is "found" (c)
2.
capture - The opposite is "release" (a)
3.
here - The opposite is "there" (e)
4.
create - The opposite is "destroy" (b)
5.
enemy - The opposite is "friend" (l)
6.
ugly - The opposite is "pretty" (h)
7.
humble - The opposite is "proud" (k)
8.
foolish - The opposite is "wise" (i)
9.
false - The opposite is "true" (f)
10.
entrance - The opposite is "exit" (d)
11.
clumsy - The opposite is "elegant" (j)
12.
sink - The opposite is "float" (g)
Part 2: Add prefixes (un, in, dis) to make opposites
Let me figure out which prefix works for each word:
1.
appear → disappear (dis-)
2.
welcome → unwelcome (un-)
3.
expensive → inexpensive (in-)
4.
willing → unwilling (un-)
5.
agree → disagree (dis-)
6.
complete → incomplete (in-)
7.
visible → invisible (in-)
8.
popular → unpopular (un-)
9.
organise → disorganise (dis-)
10.
efficient → inefficient (in-)
11.
friendly → unfriendly (un-)
12.
edible → inedible (in-)
13.
correct → incorrect (in-)
14.
happy → unhappy (un-)
15.
like → dislike (dis-)
Let me double-check my answers to make sure they're all correct...
