familiarity has 9 distinct synonyms spread across 4 of its 5 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. Its one recorded opposite is unfamiliarity.
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.
personal knowledge or information about someone or something
usualness by virtue of being familiar or well known
close or warm friendship
“the absence of fences created a mysterious intimacy in which no one knew privacy”
Synonyms, antonyms and the broader and narrower relations for familiarity come from Princeton University’s WordNet. Full sources and licences.
