Examples:
- Verb: buy & purchase
- Adjective: big & large
- Adverb: quickly & speedily
- Preposition: on & upon
For example:
- The words big and large are synonyms.
- Buy and Purchase are also synonyms – although we likely to use “buy” in a more informal context, and “purchase” in a more formal context.
Synonyms are frequently used in different collocations, too.
For example, we can explain either a person or an idea as Brilliant, but only a person can be Smart.
