What is a Synonymy Analogy?
A synonymy analogy links two words with similar or identical meanings. For example, "quick : fast" or "house : dwelling".
In the psychometric test, you are given a pair of synonyms and must identify another pair sharing the same relationship from 4 options.
How to Master Synonymy Analogies
- Identify the nuance : Two synonyms are never perfectly identical. Look for the exact degree of similarity.
- Eliminate traps : Some options offer thematically related words that are not actual synonyms.
- Expand your vocabulary : The broader your lexicon, the faster you will spot synonymy relationships.
