: How many autoantonyms (self-antonyms) can you think of?
Ok here goes:
parallel- separated or related
buckle- to pull together or fall apart
left- here or not here
argue-assert or deny
dress- to put on a covering or take off a covering (like dress a turkey)
scan- read fast or read slowly and carefully
all over- available or no longer available
unqualified- lacking nothing or lacking skills
screen- to show or to hide
Thats my ten. Fun game.
