What is the antonym of brackish

Answer 1

Context is important here, but typically brackish is used to describe the quality/type of water in a body of water. In that context, brackish is referring to water that has more salt than freshwater, but not as much salt as ocean water. It's kind of part-fresh part-salt water. So, fresh or pure would be a few antonyms.

However, in other contexts (such as when "brackish" is used in literature) brackish can also mean unpleasant or distasteful, often in terms of food. In that case, here are a few antonyms if brackish is being used in that context:

1. palatable
2. appealing
3. delicious
4. flavorful
5. appetizing



Answer 2

Hi!

I agree with the previous responses. I'd be glad to weigh in with some thoughts if you'd like to post the context of the word. More often than not, I've seen brackish used to describe a body of water, but I've also seen the word used to describe other things such as complex situations, conversations, books, song, movies, etc.

Good luck!
