Try using the word in a sentence, then think of other words you can put in and still have the sentence mean the same thing.

For example, Elvis's song "Don't be cruel, to a heart that's true." I don't know if it's really the same to say, "Don't be bad, to a heart that's true." Evil might work. Hasn't anyone ever been cruel to you and broken your heart? Think of those kinds of words.

Washroom is good for toilet, but what do the other people say when they have to go to the washroom? I'm sure you can do this! "Excuse me, Miss Teach, I have to go to the loo."

Good luck. Also, look on-line for a thesaurus. That's a dictionary that has words that mean the same thing.
