Answer 1

Answer:

The word that is the antonym of "timid" is:

Explanation:

Antonyms are words that have opposite meanings. Examples of antonyms are: hot/cold; tall/short; beautiful/ugly. Therefore, we need to choose the word whose meaning is the opposite of "timid". A timid person is someone who lacks confidence or courage. The opposite of timid is, thus, someone who has courage = someone is brave. The best option is then a. brave.
