Types of Antonym
There are three types of antonym, which are:
Graded Antonyms – Graded antonyms use words having variations between two opposites. For instance, the words “big” and “little” are opposite; however, they can use a variety of other words with opposite meanings such as:
Big, bulky, full-size, huge / petite, slight, and little
Smart, clever, canny, bright / stupid, dim, obtuse, foolish, unwise
Happy, pleased, joyful, ecstatic / sad, gloomy, dejected, miserable
Healthy, vigorous, fit, strong / sick, unwell, ill, ailing

Relational or Converse Antonyms – Relational antonyms use word pairs having a close relationship in which each word cannot exist without the other, or one word has only a single relational opposite. For example:
Front-back
Open-close
Husband-wife
Hello-goodbye

Complimentary Antonyms – Complimentary antonyms use word pairs that are absolute opposites. They can independently exist without each other, such as a daughter is not the complimentary opposite of a son in the family. Similarly girls can exist without their complimentary opposites, boys. Some of these are given below:
True-false
Dead-alive
Male-female
On-off
Daughter-son
Yes-no
