## How to play?

One target word, three synonyms to find. The length of each expected synonym is shown as letter boxes: this game rewards lexical precision, not brainstorming.

1. 1

   A target word appears, along with a short prompt.
2. 2

   Three rows of boxes show how long each expected synonym is.
3. 3

   Submit one synonym at a time; every answer is checked instantly.
4. 4

   Find all three synonyms to win the round.

## Why play?

- Builds active vocabulary, not just recognition.
- The displayed length guides you without giving it away.
- Made for anyone who loves the nuances of language.

## Tips

- Start from the first letter and the length: run through words beginning with that letter and count their letters before typing, so you don't waste guesses.
- If the target word has several meanings, explore them all: a row may match a sense you hadn't thought of at first.
- Switch registers: an expected synonym can be more formal, more casual or more specific than the starting word.
- After a wrong guess, correctly placed letters stay locked in green. A guess of the right length therefore tells you something, but every miss costs points.
- Each synonym only counts once, so there's no point entering it again on another row.

## Frequently asked questions

<details>

<summary>How do you play Synonymo?

</summary>

A target word appears with three rows of boxes. Each row expects a synonym whose first letter and length are shown. Enter one word at a time, in any order, with unlimited tries. Find all three synonyms to win. The words are in French.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Is Synonymo free to play?

</summary>

Yes. Synonymo is completely free and runs in your browser, on desktop or mobile, with nothing to download. You can play today's grid without an account; a free account unlocks the archive of past days, and SIWA+ (€18 a year) removes ads and adds advanced stats.

<details>

<summary>Why doesn't my correct synonym fit in the grid?
