Vocabulary Words Worksheet - Match the word with its definition.

Let’s match each word with its correct definition by thinking about what each word means.

1. agree – This means to have the same opinion or believe the same thing as someone else.
→ Matches with D. believe the same

2. calm – This means quiet, not excited or upset.
→ Matches with F. quiet and careful (Note: “careful” isn’t perfect, but among the options, this is closest — calm people are often quiet and act carefully)

Wait — let’s double-check all options to make sure we’re matching correctly.

Actually, looking again:

- “Calm” can also mean peaceful or not in danger? No — that’s more like “safe”. Let’s hold off and check others first.

3. whisper – To speak very quietly.
→ Matches with G. a quiet voice, speak quietly

4. safe – Not in danger.
→ Matches with E. not in danger

5. gentle – Soft, kind, careful in movement or touch.
→ Matches with H. soft and careful

6. believe – To think something is true.
→ Matches with I. to think something is true

7. scattered – Spread out in different places.
→ Matches with C. spread around

8. frightened – Scared. But none of the definitions say “scared”. Wait — look at option J: “scored”? That doesn’t fit. Maybe typo? Or perhaps it’s meant to be “scared”? But no — let’s see.

Wait — actually, looking back: Option J says “scored” — that must be a mistake? Or maybe it’s for another word?

Hold on — let’s list all definitions again:

A. picked up and brought along → that’s “carried”

B. saw something → that’s “noticed”

C. spread around → scattered

D. believe the same → agree

E. not in danger → safe

F. quiet and careful → calm? (maybe)

G. a quiet voice, speak quietly → whisper

H. soft and careful → gentle

I. to think something is true → believe

J. scored → ??? Doesn’t fit any clearly. Maybe it’s a typo for “scared”? But “frightened” should match “scared”.

Wait — perhaps “frightened” has no direct match? But that can’t be.

Let me re-read the definitions:

Actually — maybe “frightened” matches nothing? But that seems wrong.

Wait — perhaps I missed one.

List of words:

1. agree → D

2. calm → F (quiet and careful — acceptable)

3. whisper → G

4. safe → E

5. gentle → H

6. believe → I

7. scattered → C

8. frightened → ??? None say “scared”. Unless... is there an error?

Wait — look at option B: “saw something” — that’s for “noticed”

Option A: “picked up and brought along” — that’s “carried”

So:

9. noticed → B

10. carried → A

Then what’s left for “frightened”? Only J: “scored” — which makes no sense.

But wait — maybe “frightened” is supposed to match something else? Or perhaps “scored” is a typo for “scared”?

In many worksheets, “frightened” = scared. And if J was meant to be “scared”, then it would fit.

But since we have to go by what’s written, and “scored” doesn’t fit any word, perhaps it’s a trick?

Wait — let’s count:

Words: 10 words

Definitions: A to J = 10 definitions

We have:

1. agree → D

2. calm → F

3. whisper → G

4. safe → E

5. gentle → H

6. believe → I

7. scattered → C

8. frightened → ?

9. noticed → B

10. carried → A

Leftover definition: J. scored

That doesn’t fit “frightened”.

Unless… did I misassign?

What if “calm” is not F? What if “calm” is E? But E is “not in danger” — that’s “safe”.

Perhaps “frightened” has no match? But that can’t be.

Wait — maybe “scored” is a red herring? Or perhaps it’s for “noticed”? No, “noticed” is seeing something.

Another idea: Maybe “frightened” is matched with “scored” because when you’re frightened, your heart scores? No, that’s nonsense.

Perhaps it’s a typo, and J should be “scared”. In that case, we’ll assume that.

But since the worksheet says “scored”, and we must use given options, let’s see if any other word could take J.

“Carried” is A — picked up and brought along — correct.

“Noticed” is B — saw something — correct.

“Scattered” is C — spread around — correct.

“Agree” is D — believe the same — correct.

“Safe” is E — not in danger — correct.

“Calm” — if not F, what else? F is “quiet and careful” — that fits calm.

“Whisper” — G — correct.

“Gentle” — H — soft and careful — correct.

“Believe” — I — to think something is true — correct.

“Frightened” — only J left — “scored” — doesn’t fit.

But wait — perhaps “frightened” is not supposed to be matched? No, all words must be matched.

Maybe I made a mistake with “calm”.

Let me search for alternative matches.

Is there a definition that means “scared”? No.

Unless… option J “scored” is a typo for “scared”. Given that this is a common vocabulary pair, and “frightened” = “scared”, I think it’s safe to assume that J is meant to be “scared”.

Otherwise, the worksheet has an error.

Since we have to complete it, I’ll go with:

8. frightened → J (assuming “scored” is a typo for “scared”)

But let’s confirm the rest:

9. noticed → B (saw something)

10. carried → A (picked up and brought along)

Yes.

So final matches:

1. agree - D

2. calm - F

3. whisper - G

4. safe - E

5. gentle - H

6. believe - I

7. scattered - C

8. frightened - J (with assumption)

9. noticed - B

10. carried - A

Now, to write the answer as letters on the lines.

Final Answer:

1. D
2. F
3. G
4. E
5. H
6. I
7. C
8. J
9. B
10. A
