How many synonyms do you return per word?
We typically return 10-20 synonyms per word, ranked by semantic similarity. For common words with many synonyms, we return the most relevant matches. You can also filter by part of speech to get more specific results.
Do you provide antonyms as well?
Yes, our API returns antonyms (words with opposite meanings) alongside synonyms. This is particularly useful for writing tools and vocabulary learning applications.
What is the similarity score?
The similarity score (0-1) indicates how closely a synonym matches the meaning of the input word. Higher scores mean closer semantic matches. This helps you choose the most appropriate alternative.
Are synonyms filtered by part of speech?
Yes, we return the part of speech for the input word and match synonyms accordingly. This ensures you get relevant alternatives - adjective synonyms for adjectives, verb synonyms for verbs, etc.
Can I use this for SEO content optimization?
Absolutely. Use synonyms to avoid keyword stuffing while maintaining topical relevance. The related words feature helps you cover semantic topics comprehensively for better search visibility.
How do related words differ from synonyms?
Synonyms have nearly identical meanings. Related words are semantically connected but may have different meanings - for "happy," related words include "happiness" (noun form), "joy" (related concept), etc.
Is this suitable for academic writing tools?
Yes, our thesaurus helps writers vary their vocabulary and find more precise terms. The context information helps ensure formal language for academic contexts.
Do you support multiple languages?
Currently, our Thesaurus API focuses on English. We plan to add support for additional languages in the future. Contact us for specific language requirements.
