What are the opposite words for taking?
Taking is defined as the act of obtaining or receiving something. The opposite of taking could be giving, relinquishing, or yielding. Giving refers to the act of voluntarily handing over something, while relinquishing means to release or let go of something. Yielding means to oblige or comply with someone or something, which can be opposite to taking when it involves compromise. Other antonyms for taking include returning, surrendering or conceding, where an item or idea is given up, turned over, or admitted to be true. In any context, using the opposite of taking can convey a different meaning and perspective to a situation.
