Are 'Resistant' and 'Yielding' synonyms, antonyms, or neither?

English

These are antonyms!! 

Resistant means that something can't affect it (the resistant object), or has a hard time affecting it. For example, water resistant shoes aren't easily affected by water; water cant pass through them as easily as non-water resistant shoes.

Yielding means that something is flexible or is influenced by another thing easily. For example, when you "yield" when driving, you are letting the other cars go before you; or, when an object "yields" to pressure, it is bending under pressure (though not quite breaking).

In summary: resistant means nothing can touch it, while yielding means that things easily affect it; thus, antonyms.

<span>The “fall of the House of Usher” was written by Edgar Allan Poe and published in 1839 in a magazine. At that time, his kind of literature was not popular, the Gothic movement started in England and it was brought to America by him.

He introduced the idea of short stories, he argued that a story was meant to be read at one sitting. </span>

Select the correct description of the expression below.
brilliants [131]

Answer: stilted

Explanation: Tbh I searched the definition of “stilted”on the internet; it means “(of a manner of talking or writing) stiff and self-conscious or unnatural.” It wouldn’t be slang because slang means everyday talk. Vague means not thoroughly described. Cliché is used to describe a word, phrase, or event that is overused (ex. happily ever after, love at first sight)
