Question

What a silly mistake has been done by you. Synonym for silly will be
a. Abundant
b. Absurd
c. Abstain
d. Accessory

Answer 1

Hint: A synonym is a word that means the exact or similar to another word. Silly is used as a noun as well as an adjective.

Complete step-by-step answer:

 Synonyms are words that are used instead of other words that share the exact or more similar meaning to it. The use of synonyms helps in preventing the repeated usage of a single word in a sentence.
The given term ‘silly’ is used to refer to something or someone showing nonsensical or lack of commonsense. By calling someone silly, we intend that the person is foolish, stupid, absurd, or idiotic. Thus, option b becomes the right answer.
The term ‘abundant’ in option refers to something in large quantity. It underlines a plentiful source and shares no relation with ‘silly.’ Hence, this option can be ruled out.
Option c is incorrect here. Abstain is the verb that describes the deliberate restrain or negation by oneself from doing something. It indicates a strict behavior or quality in a person.
Option d is also wrong as ‘accessory’ is nothing more than a thing. It evidently cannot be a synonym to silly and therefore is a wrong option.

Note: Absurd is also used to define highly complex and difficult concepts. Example: absurd paintings.
