A synonym is a word that means exactly the same as, or very nearly the same as, another word in the same language. For example, "close" is a synonym of "shut".

Note that a synonym may share an identical meaning with another word, but the two words are not necessarily interchangeable. For example, "blow up" and "explode" have the same meaning, but "blow up" is informal (used more in speech) and "explode" is more formal (used more in writing and careful speech).

Here are some more examples of synonyms:

synonyms part of speech

close shut verb

blow up explode verb

blow up inflate verb

shallow superficial adjective

eager earnest keen adjective

spontaneous impromptu unplanned adjective

You can find synonyms in a synonym dictionary or thesaurus.
