This is the Vocab24 daily quiz of 19 July 2026, the same 7 questions the app served that day, on the day's vocabulary and editorial. One mark for a right answer, minus 0.25 for a wrong one; the explanation opens as soon as you tap.
Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
OUTFOX
Explanation: Outfox means to defeat or deceive someone by using greater cleverness or cunning; therefore, outwit is the most appropriate synonym. Support means to assist someone, while inform means to provide information, and both are opposite in sense to deceiving or defeating someone. Retrace means to go back over a previously followed route and is associated with backtrack, not outfox.
Out of the given alternatives select the alternative which best expresses the meaning of given word.
SCALABLE
Explanation: Scalable describes something capable of being expanded or adapted to meet increasing demands, making expandable the best synonym. Limited and fixed indicate an inability to grow or change and are therefore antonyms of scalable. Hasty means done too quickly or before adequate consideration and is related to premature, not to the capacity for expansion.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
BACKTRACK
Explanation: Backtrack means to retrace one’s steps or reverse an earlier decision or course of action. Proceed means to continue moving forward and is therefore the most suitable antonym. Retreat, reconsider, and retrace all suggest going back, withdrawing, or reviewing an earlier course, so they express meanings similar to backtrack rather than its opposite.
Out of the given alternatives select the word opposite in meaning to the given word.
PREMATURE
Explanation: Premature means occurring or being done before the proper or expected time. Timely means occurring at a suitable or appropriate time and is therefore its correct opposite. Untimely, hasty, and early all convey the idea of something happening too soon or without waiting for the proper time, so they are synonyms or closely related meanings rather than antonyms.
Out of given alternatives, choose the word which can be substituted for the given words/ sentence.
A person who occupies an important official position but possesses little real power or authority.
Explanation: A figurehead is a nominal leader who has an impressive title or position but little actual authority. Outfox is a verb meaning to defeat someone through cleverness, while backtrack means to reverse a decision or retrace one’s steps. Scalable describes something capable of expansion, so none of these alternatives can substitute the given definition.
Out of given alternatives, choose the word which can be substituted for the given words/ sentence.
Capable of being expanded or adapted efficiently to satisfy increasing demands.
Explanation: Scalable is the correct one-word substitute because it refers to a system, plan, or arrangement that can be expanded or adapted as demand increases. Premature means occurring before the proper time, figurehead refers to a nominal leader without real authority, and backtrack means to reverse a decision or return along the same route.
Out of given alternatives, choose the word which can be substituted for the given words/ sentence.

Scalable means capable of expansion, outfox means to defeat or deceive someone through cleverness, and figurehead means a nominal leader with little genuine authority. Therefore, option (b) is the only suitable answer.
