Hi everyone. My name is Luz Castillo and I am very happy because I would like to share
a short presentation about synonyms. I hope it may help students who are studying English
as a foreign language. Synonyms are important for improving reading and writing skills.Therefore,
the objective of this presentation is to explain what synonyms are and provide some examples
of synonyms. In the index I have included synonyms, synonyms in context, a table with synonyms, additional
practice, and that's all. Synonyms are words with similar meanings. They add variety to
your vocabuary and you can avoid repetition of words with synonyms.Synonyms are necessary
to understand a reading and may also be helpful when you make your writing more interesting.Synonyms
are used to avoid repetition. In general, they are useful to add variety to your vocabulary
and help you improve reading and writing skills. Some examples of synonyms include huge and
vast, surprising and amazing, fragile and delicate. Synonyms in context are also very
important; here, I present two examples of sentences in which synonyms are included.
The first example is: He is so funny because he is always telling humorous stories.You
can observe here that the words funny and humorous are synonyms. Another example is:
Please, do not speak while I am talking.The words speak and talk are synonyms.In table
1, I present some words with their corresponding synonyms.We have the words hard and difficlut,
help and assist, end finish,smart clever. For additional practice, you can review the
link. Thanks.
