Question: 1 / 2700

What is the opposite of the word 'mar'?

Enhance

The correct choice is 'enhance' because it means to improve or increase the quality, value, or extent of something. In contrast, 'mar' refers to damaging or spoiling something. Therefore, enhancing something stands in direct opposition to marring it, as one emphasizes improvement while the other denotes deterioration.

The other options, while related to change or transformation, do not convey a direct opposite meaning to 'mar'. 'Reduce' suggests making something smaller or less valuable, 'destroy' implies a complete loss or annihilation, and 'alter' indicates a change but does not inherently imply an improvement. Therefore, 'enhance' best encapsulates the opposite concept, making it the most suitable choice.
