Answer from: gdubak

1. unsophisticated

2. imprudent

3. dissociation

4. plaudit

5. modify

6. malodorous

Explanation:

"intricacy" refers to the characteristics of things that contains a lot of complicated details.

"sophisticated" is a synonym of "complicated"

"complexity" is the noun form of "complex" - which is synonym with "complicated"

Meanwhile, "unsophisticated" has opposite meaning with "sophisticated" => antonym of "complicated"

- "expedient" is used to describe action that is convenient and practical despite its possible improper.

- "advantageous" is used to describe thing that helps you do something more easily or conveniently

=> both words have the similar meaning with "convenient"

- "imprudent" refers to actions that lack of care for the consequence

- "dissociation" is used to refer to actions of separating from something else

- "intention" refers to aimed thing, plan

- "aspiration" is what you hope to achieve

- "design" refers to plan or drawing or arrangement produced to demonstrate the look or function

In these 4 words, "intention, aspiration and design" contain the meaning of things that are planned and known before, different from "dissociation".

- "resentment", "grievance" and "grudge" contain the meaning of negative feeling or attitudes towards things or people.

- "plaudit" refers to the expression of applause - which is positive

- "mollify" has the meaning of reducing the severity or softening something

- "pacify" and "appease" also contain the meaning of softening the tense

- "modify" refers to the action of making changes for something => different from the other

- all "savory", "appetizing", "flavorsome" are adjectives used to describe foods with good taste, delicious.

- "malodorous " means the unpleasant smell of something => different
