What would be the opposite of 'comprehensible'?

Simple
Clear
Unclear
Direct

The correct answer is: Unclear

The term 'comprehensible' refers to something that can be easily understood or grasped. Therefore, the opposite would be a term that signifies a lack of clarity or difficulty in understanding. 'Unclear' fits this definition perfectly, as it directly implies that something is ambiguous or not easily understood, making it the opposite of 'comprehensible'. The other options, while they may seem relevant in different contexts, do not convey the same meaning of confusion or lack of understanding that 'unclear' does. For example, 'simple' suggests ease of understanding but does not inherently imply that something is not comprehensible. 'Clear' is synonymous with comprehensible, and 'direct' typically refers to straightforwardness but does not necessarily address the state of being understandable. Thus, 'unclear' distinctly represents the opposite concept of 'comprehensible'.
