GALLANT

Single correct option

Choose the word most nearly the SAME in meaning as: GALLANT
  1. A. Graceful
  2. B. Clever
  3. C. Generous
  4. D. Brave
Show answer and solution

Answer: (D) Brave

'Gallant' as an adjective means brave and heroic, especially in battle or rescue. 'Graceful' is a tempting choice because the word can also mean courteous toward women, but that is a secondary sense. 'Clever' and 'generous' describe intelligence and giving, so they do not match.
