What are the opposite words for flatter?
The word "flatter" refers to the act of praising or complimenting someone in an insincere way. The antonyms for "flatter" are words that indicate criticism or censure. These antonyms include words like "insult," "slur," "dishonor," "belittle," "depreciate," and "degrade." These words convey negative connotations and may be hurtful to the person receiving them. While flattery is often used to gain favor or manipulate others, it is not a genuine form of praise. Therefore, it is important to use genuine praise and compliments rather than fake flattery. Choosing words that show respect and appreciation for someone's efforts or achievements is a much better way of building strong relationships.
