success has 3 distinct synonyms spread across 1 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 failure.
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.
an attainment that is successful
“his success in the marathon was unexpected”
a state of prosperity or fame
“he is enjoying great success”
Synonyms, antonyms and the broader and narrower relations for success come from Princeton University’s WordNet. Full sources and licences.
