Answer 1

Answer:

A synonym is a word or phrase that means exactly or nearly the same as another word or phrase in the same language. For example, words humorous and hilarious mean the same as the word funny. Those words are synonyms. When one word has more than one meaning, we need to be careful when determining synonyms. For example, the word pupil referring to a part of the eye is not synonymous with the word student. But, when it's referring to a student, those words are synonyms.

Your task was to pair the word with its synonym. The solutions are the following:

1. Knack - Talent

2. Paragraph - Passage

3. Maintain - Insist on

4. Break - Shatter

5. Uneasy - Restless

An antonym is a word or a phrase that has an exact opposite meaning from another word or phrase in the same language. We could say that the word antonym is an antonym of the word synonym. Another example are words fast and slow, noisy and quiet. We need to pay attention to the meaning of the word when determining antonyms as well. Fast doesn't have to mean only moving at high speed but firmly fixed or attached, as well. In the second case, the antonym is loose, not slow.

The solutions to your task are the following:

1. Cheerful - Gloomy

2. Lose - Capture

3. Whisper - Exclaim

4. Hero - Coward

5. Deep - Shallow
