Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer:

Even when the word "fast" is used in the sense of speed, there are quiet a few different contexts; for example, the word can be applied to people, objects, or even processes. Let's take a look at some of them. A handful of these terms describe general fast movement or action, with "quick" often emphasizing promptness, "speedy" focusing on high velocity, and "swift" suggesting smooth, effortless speed.

"Nimble" and "fleet" refer to agility combined with speed; "nimble" implies dexterity and precision, while "fleet" conveys a light, rapid movement. "Rapid," "brisk," and "expeditious" are practical terms, with "rapid" meaning high speed in general, "brisk" suggesting energetic movement, and "expeditious" highlighting efficiency in completing a task quickly.

"Hasty" and "hurried" describe speed that sacrifices care or deliberation, often implying a rushed or careless quality. "Accelerated" focuses on an increase in speed over time. In terms of the fastest speeds, "blazing" suggests incredible velocity or intensity, "supersonic" describes speeds exceeding the speed of sound, "instantaneous" refers to something happening in a moment, and "immediate" emphasizes no delay or waiting.

The other terms were all antonyms for the word "fast."
