person has 5 distinct synonyms spread across 1 of its 3 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.
a human being
“there was too much for one person to do”
a human body (usually including the clothing)
“a weapon was hidden on his person”
a grammatical category used in the classification of pronouns, possessive determiners, and verb forms according to whether they indicate the speaker, the addressee, or a third party
“stop talking about yourself in the third person”
Synonyms, antonyms and the broader and narrower relations for person come from Princeton University’s WordNet. Full sources and licences.
