ASubsequent
BLater
CResultant
DLatter
Answer:
D. Latter
Read Explanation:
The word 'former' refers to the first one or the earlier of two people, things, or concepts that have been mentioned.
For example, in the sentence "Between coffee and tea, I prefer the former," the speaker is indicating they prefer coffee, which was mentioned first.
'Latter' is the direct antonym (opposite) of 'former' and refers to the second one or the more recent of two people, things, or concepts previously mentioned. In the same example, "Between coffee and tea, I prefer the latter" would mean the person prefers tea.
These words form a complementary pair used for referring back to items in a discussion without repeating them. Other similar pairs in English include:
