Which of the following is not the meaning of the word 'incessant' ?

Question

Accepted Answer

Option 3 is the correct answer because 'incessant' means something that continues without stopping. 'Ending' is the opposite of continuing without stopping. Therefore, 'ending' is not a meaning of 'incessant'.

Here's why the other options are incorrect:

*   **Option 1 (continuous):** 'Continuous' means happening without interruption, which is a synonym for 'incessant'. Therefore, it *is* a meaning of 'incessant'.

*   **Option 2 (unceasing):** 'Unceasing' means not coming to an end; continuing without stopping. This is a direct synonym of 'incessant'. Therefore, it *is* a meaning of 'incessant'.

*   **Option 4 (unremitting):** 'Unremitting' means never relaxing or slackening; incessant. This is also a synonym for 'incessant'. Therefore, it *is* a meaning of 'incessant'.
