Let’s go step by step to match each word with its synonym — that means a word that has the same or very similar meaning.
We’ll look at each word on the left and find its matching partner on the right.
1.
sack → This is another word for “bag”. So, sack = bag
2.
small → Means not big. The synonym is “little”
3.
happy → Feeling good or glad. Synonym: “glad”
4.
angry → Feeling mad or upset. Synonym: “mad”
5.
start → To begin something. Synonym: “begin”
6.
kids → Another word for children. Synonym: “children”
7.
big → Large in size. Synonym: “large”
8.
messy → Not clean, untidy. Synonym: “dirty” (in this context, it fits best)
9.
sad → Opposite of happy. Synonym: “unhappy”
10.
perhaps → Means maybe. Synonym: “maybe”
Now let’s double-check each pair to make sure they truly mean the same thing:
- sack ↔ bag
✔
- small ↔ little
✔
- happy ↔ glad
✔
- angry ↔ mad
✔
- start ↔ begin
✔
- kids ↔ children
✔
- big ↔ large
✔
- messy ↔ dirty
✔ (both describe something not neat or clean)
- sad ↔ unhappy
✔
- perhaps ↔ maybe
✔
All matches are correct!
Final Answer:
