What is the opposite of succinct?

The opposite of succinct depends on what aspect you're focusing on:

If succinct means "brief and to the point," then the opposite could be:

* Verbose: Using more words than necessary, rambling.

* Prolix: Excessively wordy.

* Circumspect: Including unnecessary details, going around the point.

* Diffuse: Spread out, lacking focus.

* Rambling: Lacking coherence and structure.

If succinct means "concise and clear," then the opposite could be:

* Ambiguous: Unclear, open to multiple interpretations.

* Vague: Indefinite, lacking precision.

* Obscure: Difficult to understand.

* Confusing: Difficult to follow.

If succinct means "efficient and impactful," then the opposite could be:

* Wordy: Using too many words, making the message less impactful.

* Redundant: Repeating information unnecessarily.

* Unfocused: Lacking a clear message or purpose.

* Ineffective: Failing to achieve the desired result.

The best opposite for "succinct" depends on the specific context and what aspect of "succinct" you want to emphasize.
