Which adjective means not patient?

• A. Impatient
• B. Adverse
• C. Appraise
• D. Acquisition

Answer: (A)

Not patient describes someone who cannot wait calmly, so the adjective that fits is impatient. It directly conveys a lack of patience, as in someone growing restless or irritated while waiting.

Adverse refers to something harmful or unfavorable, not a person’s state of waiting. Appraise is about judging the value of something (often a verb), not a mood or temperament. Acquisition is a noun meaning something that has been acquired or the act of obtaining, not a description of a person.
