Synonym selection checklist

Match the part of speech before comparing meanings.
Check whether the synonym changes intensity, formality, or emotional tone.
Read the replacement inside the full sentence, not just beside "intaken".
Prefer the clearest word over the most unusual word when writing for speed or comprehension.

When not to replace "intaken"

Keep "intaken" when the sentence already sounds natural, when a synonym would add unintended emphasis, or when readers need the most familiar wording. A synonym should clarify or sharpen the message, not simply make the sentence look more varied.

If two options seem close, choose the one that best matches the audience and purpose of the sentence.

Replacement workflow

1. Preserve meaning

Choose a synonym only if it keeps the core idea of "intaken" intact in the sentence you are editing.

2. Tune tone

Check whether the replacement sounds more formal, casual, emotional, technical, or forceful than the original word.

3. Re-read context

Read the full sentence after the swap. Keep the synonym only when the sentence becomes clearer or more precise.

Review note: Synonym lists are ranked with lexical data and reviewed for practical writing value. Use the comparison notes, sentence evidence, and source labels together; a high-ranking synonym can still be wrong when the audience, register, or grammar changes.

Final fit check

After choosing a replacement for "intaken", read the sentence once for meaning and once for rhythm. The best synonym should feel natural in the full sentence, not only accurate in a word list.

If the synonym makes the sentence slower, vaguer, or more dramatic than intended, keep "intaken" or choose a simpler alternative from the closest-match group.

Tatoeba + Wiktionary

1900 James Cockcroft et al.The American And English Encyclopedia of Law A. & E. Encycl. of L., 2d Edition A charter-party provided for a certain rate of freight on the cargo intaken. The word "delivered" in the charter-party had been stricken out and the word intaken written in. The court said, in construing this provision: "If the number of tons delivered is conclusive evidence of the number of tons intaken, the careful erasure from the charter-party of the printed word delivered' and the insertion of the written word intaken was an idle ceremony. This would assume, and give to respondents the full benefit of the assumption, that the weight of the cargo is fixed by a definite, certain, indexible, and unchangeable standard; that there can be no error or fluctuation, loss of quantity, or diminution in weight; and that the exact number of tons which went in at Pomaron would come out here. The evidence discloses the fact that the weight of the intaken cargo and the output at the port of delivery seldom, if ever, agree."
