    Anger is an emotion that cannot be perceived through the senses or experienced physically. It is a subjective and internal state of mind, making it an abstract concept. Concrete refers to something that can be seen, touched, or experienced in a tangible way, which does not apply to anger. Therefore, anger is classified as an abstract concept.

    The given question is asking for a word that is the opposite of "truth". "Truth" is a concept that refers to something that is factual and accurate.

    The word "book" refers to a physical object that can be touched, seen, and held. It is a tangible item that exists in the physical world, making it a concrete noun. Abstract nouns, on the other hand, refer to ideas, concepts, or emotions that cannot be perceived through the senses. Since a book is a physical entity, it falls under the category of concrete nouns.

    Correct Answer
    B. Abstract
    Explanation
    The word "happiness" is an abstract noun because it refers to a state of mind or emotion that cannot be physically touched or perceived through the senses. It is a subjective experience that varies from person to person and cannot be directly observed or measured. Unlike concrete nouns, which represent tangible objects or things that can be perceived by the senses, abstract nouns represent ideas, concepts, or emotions that exist in the mind. Therefore, "happiness" falls into the category of abstract nouns.

A concrete noun refers to something that can be perceived by the senses, such as a physical object or a specific person. On the other hand, an abstract noun refers to something that cannot be perceived by the senses, such as a concept, thought, or emotion. Since an idea is a concept or thought that exists in the mind, it falls under the category of abstract nouns.

Since "peace" cannot be perceived through the senses, it falls into the category of abstract nouns.
