@nikeboi101 any thoughts @corig

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well what does each word mean? if you dont know look up what the words mean and then determine if the 2 words are synonyms or antonyms

OpenStudy (samslays):

Welll, what do you think the answer could be

OpenStudy (samslays):

@tristanwhitmire

OpenStudy (samslays):

a person who can endure pain or hardship without showing their feelings or complaining. Thats what stoic means

OpenStudy (samslays):

(of a situation or condition) extremely bad, unpleasant, and degrading. That's what abject means

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. and abject and elated are antonyms. so what is the opposite of someone who can endure pain or hardship without showing feelings or complaining?

OpenStudy (samslays):

Strong! So the answer is C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i would go with emotional. reason being that someone who is able to take pain and now show feelings usually are told they have no emotions. while someone who cant is usually emotional and cries about everything. make since?

OpenStudy (samslays):

Not really. Wouldn't be strong, because if you are strong you can endure pain

OpenStudy (anonymous):

theyre opposites. the words given to you (as abject is to elated) are opposites therefore your answer would be too.

OpenStudy (samslays):

ohh yea that's right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hope i helped. i struggled a lot with this when i first learned it. you just always have to look up the ones that go together first. they wont always be synonyms (same meaning)

OpenStudy (samslays):

Yea, you did help So, let me make sure I'm right, the answer is emotional

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes it is. thats the only word that is the opposite of Stoic. another tip for this is the other 2 choices. they could both be synonyms to this word. while the only antonym is emotional

OpenStudy (samslays):

Yea, that makes sense. Thank you soooooo much! Your a life saver Let me fan you, give you a medal, and then submit my test. If you don't mind could you wit here so I
