Word Game - Synonyms and Antonyms -
30-05-2009, 08:58 AM

Hello Friends !
I opened this thread because I didn't find any thread related to synonyms and antonyms.
So,first of all a short introduction about synonyms and antonyms (For newbies)
Synonyms are different words with similar or identical meanings.They are interchangeable.
For example: Fast and rapid.
Antonyms are words with opposite or nearly opposite meanings.
For example: Fast and slow.
So,let's start the game...You can continue by posting the synonym and antonym of a given word along with a new word as next one.
Cheers,
|
