What term is synonymous with 'indefinable'?

  1. Intangible

  2. Definable

  3. Specific

  4. Concrete

The correct answer is: Intangible

The term 'indefinable' suggests something that cannot be clearly defined or described. 'Intangible' fits this meaning well because it refers to things that cannot be touched, seen, or easily grasped, similar to the concept of being hard to define. For example, emotions and feelings often fall into this category; they can be experienced but not concretely described. In contrast, the other options present meanings that align with clear definition or physicality. 'Definable' implies that something can indeed be defined, while 'specific' denotes clarity and precision in meaning. 'Concrete' refers to something that is physically solid and can be easily identified, which further emphasizes differentiation from the essence of being indefinable. Thus, 'intangible' is the most appropriate synonym for 'indefinable.'
