Synonym
My word is a lot like superior because the definition of transcendental is beyond ordinary, supernatural, vast knowledge, etc. This is basically what superior means. But its different because transcendental has a bigger meaning. Someone can be superior by just a little bit, but when your transcendental, no one's even close to you and your supernatural knowledge and skills.
Antonym
an antonym is peasant. Peasants are the lower class beings that worked for kings and were ruled by kings a long time ago. They don't have a say in anything and most people would agree that they're virtually worthless ( in sense of power and influence). This is the exact opposite of transcendental because transcendental means great, powerful, and superior.
I would use this word when talking to anyone with a good education(doctors, college students, teachers, etc.). Using this word in an essay for school or college would be good because the word sounds smart and if you want to come off as a smart person, you would use this word. I Wouldn't use this word when your talking with friends, family, or less educated people. Instead, use supernatural because that has close to the same meaning and it's more widely known.
I give this word 4 out of 5 stars. It has multiple meanings combined into one word which is awesome and useful. When you want to say something is amazing, you can just say it's transcendental and that will get your point across. It's a stronger word to use then superior or anything else. The downside is that you can only use it in certain cases because not many people know that word. Overall its a great word to know.
