What is confident opposite to?

Answer 1

I think the question that can come under this section (RELATIONSHIP) is CONFIDANT and not confident. The word confident means con·fi·dant (k¼n"f¹-d²nt", -dänt", k¼n"f¹-d²nt", -dänt") n. 1. One to whom secrets or private matters are disclosed. 2. A character in a drama or fiction, such as a trusted friend or servant, who serves as a device for revealing the inner thoughts or intentions of a main character. [French confident, from Italian confidente, from Latin c½nfºd¶ns, c½nfºdent-, present participle of c½nfºdere, to rely on. And antonym which suits it to an extent isen·e·my (µn"…-m¶) n., pl. en·e·mies. 1. One who feels hatred toward, intends injury to, or opposes the interests of another; a foe. 2.a. A hostile power or force, such as a nation. b. A member or unit of such a force. 3. A group of foes or hostile forces. See Usage Note at collective noun. 4. Something destructive or injurious in its effects: "Art hath an enemy called Ignorance" (Ben Jonson). --en·e·my adj. Of, relating to, or being a hostile power or force.
