This fabulous resource lists many more synonyms for individual words, a tremendous asset to writers who frequently wish they could find another way to say the same thing. And many words listed in The Synonym Finder give synonyms for various meanings of the same word. For instance, the word “walk.” Instead of having your hero walk across the room, you can have him stride, pace, shuffle, march, wander, meander, sidle or wend his way across. But what if your meaning of “walk” means the walk of life a character is in? Then, you can use trade, vocation, pursuit, calling, sphere, course or position. And if “walk” is referring to a walkway? Path, promenade, trail, footpath, esplanade and sidewalk offer alternatives.
