unnatural has 2 distinct synonyms spread across 2 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. Its one recorded opposite is natural.
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.
not in accordance with or determined by nature; contrary to nature
“an unnatural death”
not normal; not typical or usual or regular or conforming to a norm
“abnormal powers of concentration”
speaking or behaving in an artificial way to make an impression
