Solution

The antonym of the word "Bonhomie" is "Aloofness". Here's why:

  1. "Bonhomie" is a French word that has been adopted into English. It refers to good-natured, friendly, and cheerful disposition or atmosphere.

  2. "Geniality" and "Warmth" are synonyms of "Bonhomie" as they also refer to a friendly and cheerful disposition.

  3. "Amenity" is a pleasantness resulting from agreeable conditions. It is not an antonym but it is not exactly a synonym either.

  4. "Aloofness", on the other hand, refers to a state of being distant, remote, or withdrawn. Someone who is aloof is not approachable or friendly, which is the opposite of "Bonhomie".

So, the antonym of "Bonhomie" is "Aloofness".
