Free synonym finder
Find another way to say it. Explore dictionary synonyms for writing, crosswords and everyday word-finding, without ads or an account.
Choose the meaning you need
A word can have several meanings. Search for bright in the Synonyms tool to explore alternatives such as brilliant. Results are grouped by dictionary meaning, with a definition and part of speech to help you choose.
Read the definition before substituting a word. Alternatives that work for light may not express the same idea when you are describing a person.
Fit a synonym into a crossword
- Enter the word or phrase you want alternatives for.
- Add an Answer length if you know how many letters will fit.
- Use Known letters for crossings: ?r?????? means eight letters with r in the second position.
- Select Find words, then check the definitions beside the results.
When a word has no alternatives
Try the base form of the word or remove the length and known-letter filters. Synonyms come from Open English WordNet, whose coverage differs from the main word list. A word may exist in the anagram or missing-letter dictionary without having synonyms here.
This is dictionary lookup: it does not interpret a complete crossword clue. Use a likely meaning or a single word from the clue, then check the alternatives against your crossings.
