duplicate has 10 distinct synonyms spread across 6 of its 8 senses. Each sense below keeps its own list, because a synonym belongs to a meaning and not to a word: swapping one sense's substitute into another sense's sentence is how a thesaurus makes writing worse. WordNet records no antonym for it — antonymy is a relation between word forms rather than concepts, so it is deliberately sparse.
Counts are distinct word forms across every sense. A synonym that appears under three senses is counted once here and shown three times below, under each sense it belongs to.
make or do or perform again
“He could never replicate his brilliant performance of the magic trick”
make a duplicate or duplicates of
“Could you please duplicate this letter for me?”
a copy that corresponds to an original exactly
“he made a duplicate for the files”
1 of the 8 recorded senses carries no synonym, antonym or related term, so it is not shown above. Every sense, with its definition and examples, is on the full entry for duplicate.
Synonyms, antonyms and the broader and narrower relations for duplicate come from Princeton University’s WordNet. Full sources and licences.
