Takeaways

• 😀 Analogies (Padanan Kata) test the relationship between words, requiring the identification of patterns and similarities, such as the relationship between crocodiles and lizards.
• 😀 For analogies, the key to solving the questions is identifying the right keyword that links the two words and finding a matching relationship among the answer choices.
• 😀 Synonyms (Sinonim) are words that have similar meanings, such as 'krusial' meaning 'important.' Finding the correct synonym involves recognizing words with the same or similar meaning.
• 😀 In the synonym section, it's essential to know the context of a word and its commonly accepted meaning in different situations to find its correct synonym.
• 😀 Antonyms (Lawan Kata) test the ability to identify words with opposite meanings. For example, 'pemupukan' means fertilization, and its antonym is 'penggundulan' (deforestation).
• 😀 To answer antonym questions correctly, understanding the core meaning of the word and recognizing its opposite is crucial.
• 😀 Using context is helpful in analogy and antonym questions, such as adding a clarifying sentence to relate two words, like 'kering karena kekurangan air' (dry due to lack of water).
• 😀 Some analogy answers can have multiple possible choices, but focusing on the specific relationships, such as physical similarities or functional roles, helps narrow down the options.
• 😀 In antonyms, it's important to recognize when the meaning of one word directly contrasts with another, such as 'gugur' (falling) having an opposite meaning of 'tumbuh' (grow).
• 😀 Being familiar with both the direct meanings and the contextual usage of words allows for better identification of both synonyms and antonyms in these verbal tests.
