What is the antonym (opposite) of the word ‘Concise’?

Explanation

‘Concise’ means giving information clearly and in a few words, so its opposite is ‘verbose,’ meaning using far more words than necessary, as in ‘His verbose explanation lost the audience’s attention.’ Both ‘brief’ and ‘short’ are actually synonyms of ‘concise,’ not opposites, which makes this a common trap in antonym questions. Recognizing word families like this helps avoid selecting a synonym by mistake. Explore more English MCQs on mcqstutor to keep practicing.
