Antonym of Gossip
Liam: «Hey, Sarah! Do you know the antonym of ‘gossip’?»
Sarah: «Oh, that’s easy! It’s ‘chatter.’ Like, I can chatter with my friends all day long.»
Liam: «Hmm, I think you might be mistaken. ‘Chatter’ is more of a synonym for gossip!»
Sarah: «Wait, maybe it’s ‘talking’? I mean, talking is the opposite of gossip, right?»
Liam: «No, ‘talking’ is too general. That’s not really the opposite of gossip.»
Sarah: «Okay, how about ‘whispering’? It’s the opposite of gossip, right?»
Liam: «Hmm, ‘whispering’ is actually a form of gossip, not the opposite.»
Sarah: «Ah! It’s definitely ‘laughing.’ I laugh when I’m not gossiping!»
Liam: «Not quite! ‘Laughing’ is unrelated to gossip at all.»
Sarah: «Alright, maybe it’s ‘silence’? I stay silent when I’m not gossiping!»
Liam: «‘Silence’ could be a bit closer, but not exactly the opposite of gossip. Try again!»
Sarah: «Well, I’m out of guesses! What’s the right answer?»
Liam: «Let’s discuss it on next Tuesday.»
