Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer:

Synonyms for "steal" can describe a number of different behaviors, ranging from ordinary or secretive theft, to forceful taking, to officially authorized seizure.

This first group of words generally refers to informal terms for thievery: "swipe" means to steal something quickly, "nab" suggests grabbing something when an opportunity arises, "pinch" is a chiefly British informal term for stealing, and "snatch" emphasizes taking something suddenly or forcefully.

Moving on, "pilfer" often means stealing small amounts or items, "filch" suggests secretly taking something of relatively little value, "purloin" is a more formal or old-fashioned word for stealing, and "pocket" means to take something and keep it hidden from view. "Thieve" is a general verb meaning to steal, while "rob" specifically means to steal from a person or place, often through force or threats.

"Loot" and "plunder" involve stealing on a larger scale; "loot" refers to taking goods during war or disorder, while "plunder" suggests widespread or repeated stealing, especially by force. "Seize" means to take something suddenly or by force, "confiscate" usually refers to an authority officially taking property away, and "expropriate" means for a government or other authority to take private property, often for public use.

The other terms were all antonyms for the word "steal."
