Examples of synonyms and antonyms
Antonyms And Synonyms tell you about the relationship between two words if the words being the opposite of each other they are antonyms if the words have the same meaning as each other they are synonyms
just think of it like this antonyms are opposite and synonyms are similar our cats and dogs antonyms remember that means opposites no sometimes these animals do not get along but that doesn't make them opposites the words cat and dog don't have antonyms because there's no such thing as an uncapped
or an undaunted means what similar right can you think of another word that has the same meaning or that you could use in place of the word cat maybe a word like the kitty you could say this is my kitty fluffy or this is my cat fluffy and the sentences would have the same meaning
how about another word for dog-like pooch can you think of any more synonyms how about a synonym for frightened how about scared frightened and scared have the same meaning or how about quick can you think of a word that means the same thing as quick maybe fast
or maybe even speedy yes words can have more than one synonym fast quick and speedy are all synonyms they all have the same meaning what about some antonyms or words with opposite meanings does fast have an antonym, yes slow is the opposite of fast so they are antonyms if you said my car is fast and my car is slow you'd be saying two very different things opposite things
how about old does old have an opposite yep young and old are antonyms do you have any antonyms hmm old didn't we already use old that's right some words can have more than one antonym or opposite new and old are also antonyms just like young and old so does that mean that if old is an antonym of new and young that young and new are synonyms sometimes but not always new and young don't really have the same meaning usually things are new and people are young
but things and people both get old can you think of any more antonyms exhausted and energized heavy and light-dark and light aha another tricky one by the way those were all adjectives but synonyms and antonyms can also be verbs raised is an antonym of lower Tugg is a synonym of pol,
