Choose the word that is most nearly opposite in meaning to “LUCID”.
Obscure
“Lucid” describes something expressed clearly and easily understood; a lucid explanation leaves no doubt about its meaning. The word comes from the Latin lucidus, meaning bright or shining, so its opposite must describe something unclear, hidden or hard to understand.
“Obscure” means not clearly expressed, vague or difficult to understand, which is exactly the reverse of lucid.
“Intelligible” means able to be understood, “Coherent” means logical and consistent, and “Explicit” means stated clearly and in detail. All three are close in meaning to lucid, so they are synonyms rather than opposites, and “None of the above” cannot apply because an opposite is present.
Obscure option is correct.
