Question 13

Exclusive

Accepted Answer

The prefix "non-" is used to form adjectives meaning "not having the quality of," "not doing," or "not involved with," which fits with the word "exclusive," indicating something is not inclusive or not shared.

Question 14

appropriate

Accepted Answer

The prefix "in-" means "not" or "without," which could work in some contexts, but "appropriate" already implies something is suitable or fitting. Adding "not" or "without" to it could make it mean the opposite. The prefix "un-" means the same thing as "in-," so it would have the same problem. The prefix "non-" means "not" or "lacking," which could make sense in some contexts, but doesn't fit as well as "in-" in the context of "appropriate." The prefix "il-" is not a valid prefix in English, and "im-" is used to make verbs negative or indicate the opposite action, so it would not work here either. Therefore, the best choice is "in-."

Question 18

contractual

Accepted Answer

"Contractual" means relating to, specified in, or contained in a contract. The prefix "non-" negates or reverses the meaning of the word, so "non-contractual" would mean not relating to, specified in, or contained in a contract.

Question 19

legal

Accepted Answer

The correct prefix to form the opposite of "legal" is "il-", making it "illegal."

Question 20

usual

Accepted Answer

The prefix "un-" means "not," and is the best choice for creating the opposite of the word "usual."
