    The type of context clue that gives us the opposite of the unknown words meaning is called an antonym context clue, also known as contrast context clue.

    Antonyms are the opposite of synonyms - those are words that have completely different meanings, whereas synonyms are words with the same meanings. So here, if you don't know a word, and based on the context you are given its opposite meaning, then it's an antonym context clue.
