Answer 2

The right answer to the given question is option 3rd: Pugnacious.

• Except for the term pugnacious, the words indicated in the alternatives are adjectives used to characterize a person's friendly disposition.
• "Affable" refers to someone who is easy to speak to as a friend.
• The word "amiable" refers to someone who is friendly.
• The term "congenial" refers to someone who has similar interests or characteristics and is easy to get along with.
• The word "cordial" also refers to the pleasant nature of the person as a friend.
• The adjective "pugnacious" does not, however, imply a friendly personality. Someone who is ready to dispute or quarrel is the meaning of this word.
• Hence, pugnacious does not apply to the meaning described in the question.
