Brit.

/ˈantənɪm/, U.S.

/ˈæntəˌnɪm/

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: anti- prefix, -onym comb. form.

Etymology: < anti- prefix + -onym comb. form, after synonym n. Compare French antonyme (1842). Compare Hellenistic Greek ἀντωνυμία pronoun (i.e. a word used in place of a noun), interchange of names (see antonomasia n.). Compare also the following early discussion of the adoption of the term:1867 C. J. Smith Synonyms & Antonyms p. vi The Etymology of the word ἀντωνυμία merely expresses the idea of one word in substitution for, which in matters of verbal debate, is equivalent practically to opposition to another; a double force which, in addition to its analogy to Synonym, seemed to render Antonym a preferable word to Counterterm.

A word opposite in meaning to another. Also (now rarely) called counter term. Cf. synonym n.
