FAQ

Where do the synonyms come from?

From two sources: our own vetted dictionary and Wiktionary (licensed CC BY-SA 4.0, extracted via kaikki.org). The source is shown on each group of synonyms.

Which languages are supported?

Nine: English, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Indonesian, Arabic and Korean. The tool uses the language of the page.

Why are synonyms grouped?

Many words have several meanings. We split synonyms by sense using the dictionary’s labels so you don’t mix meanings.

Are all synonyms exact?

We filter out obsolete, dialectal and vulgar labels as well as partial synonyms. Still, language is alive — pick the option that fits your meaning and grammar.

Will it find a synonym for any word form?

Dictionaries store the base form (e.g. “quick”, not “quickly”). If nothing is found, try the base form of the word.
