Synonyms

A synonym of a word is one that means the same as, or very nearly the same as, itself.
A correct synonym of a word can be chosen based on its meaning and usage.
Examples:

She had a difficult decision to make.

Here, the correct synonym of ‘difficult’ is tough.

Lily could be difficult.

Here, the synonym of ‘difficult’ is troublesome.

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 and ‘explode’ is more formal.
