Maybe you're looking at the antonym - opposite meaning. Thus the antonym for "awesome" could be "terrible". The meaning of "terrible" has therefore, an opposite meaning of "awesome". Apologies if that didn't make sense. But just look carefully. 0 {2 u6 A) c6 U4 P"Awesome" means awe-inspiring meaning it takes your breath away; breathtaking; magnificent; impressive.
