Question

Using the context of the sentence, write a synonym of the word diminutive in sentence 11.

a) Tiny
b) Large
c) Ambiguous
d) Expansive

Answer 1

The correct synonym for 'diminutive' in the given sentence context is 'Tiny'. Other options do not share the same meaning of small size as 'diminutive'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Within the context of sentence 11, the most suitable synonym for the word 'diminutive' would be option a) Tiny. The word 'diminutive' itself refers to a small size, so the synonym must also indicate something that is small or lesser in size. The other options such as 'Large', 'Ambiguous', and 'Expansive' do not align with the meaning of 'diminutive' as they suggest large size, unclearness, and extensiveness, respectively. Therefore, they cannot be considered synonyms in this context.
