Correct Answer: Antipathy


Solution : The correct solution is the first option.

The term "antipathy" precisely fits this description. Antipathy refers to a deep-seated and mutual aversion or dislike between individuals. It signifies a strong and enduring negative feeling that exists between two people.

Therefore, the correct one-word substitute is antipathy .

The meaning of the other options is as follows:

  • Rivalry : This word refers to competition or a state of being rivals, which involves a competitive spirit rather than a strong dislike.
  • Tolerance : This word denotes the ability to accept or endure something.
  • Adoration : This word signifies deep love, affection, or admiration.
