Synonyms and Antonyms The plant will not flourish in the sun. It will
probably die. When I read the first sentence, I am not sure
what flourish means. So I read the second sentence for clues. I read that the plant “will probably die.” That makes me think that flourish is the opposite of die.

A word that means the same as another word is called a synonym.
