kind has 5 distinct synonyms spread across 3 of its 4 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 unkind.
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.
having or showing a tender and considerate and helpful nature; used especially of persons and their behavior
“kind to sick patients”
tolerant and forgiving under provocation
“our neighbor was very kind about the window our son broke”
