Synonyms Interactive Matching Activity
A synonym is a word that has the same or nearly the same meaning as another word. Synonyms allow for variety in language, helping writers and speakers avoid repetition and make their communication more precise or expressive. For example, instead of repeatedly using “happy,” synonyms like “joyful,” “cheerful,” or “content” can be used to convey similar feelings. Similarly, “big” can be replaced with synonyms like “large,” “huge,” or “gigantic,” depending on the context.
In some cases, synonyms may have subtle differences in tone or usage. For example, “scared” and “frightened” both indicate fear, but “frightened” might imply a more immediate or intense reaction.
