Look up a word, learn it forever.

/ˌhoʊmˈwʌrk/.

Other forms: homeworks

Any assignment you're expected to complete after school and bring back to class the next day is called homework . Many students make up excuses for not having their homework done. The "My dog ate my homework " excuse doesn't work so well in the digital age.

High school students typically have a lot of homework most days, and often that's true for younger students as well. In college, an increasing amount of school work is done outside of class, as homework (even if you do it in the library, a cafe, or a dorm). Homework originally referred to any work done at home, including cooking and cleaning. The first example of the "school work" meaning dates from the late 1880s.

Homework Words

Words related to homework.

Below is a massive list of homework words - that is, words related to homework. The top 4 are: schoolwork , classroom , teacher and practice . You can get the definition(s) of a word in the list below by tapping the question-mark icon next to it. The words at the top of the list are the ones most associated with homework, and as you go down the relatedness becomes more slight. By default, the words are sorted by relevance/relatedness, but you can also get the most common homework terms by using the menu below, and there's also the option to sort the words alphabetically so you can get homework words starting with a particular letter. You can also filter the word list so it only shows words that are also related to another word of your choosing. So for example, you could enter "schoolwork" and click "filter", and it'd give you words that are related to homework and schoolwork.

You can highlight the terms by the frequency with which they occur in the written English language using the menu below. The frequency data is extracted from the English Wikipedia corpus, and updated regularly. If you just care about the words' direct semantic similarity to homework, then there's probably no need for this.

There are already a bunch of websites on the net that help you find synonyms for various words, but only a handful that help you find related , or even loosely associated words. So although you might see some synonyms of homework in the list below, many of the words below will have other relationships with homework - you could see a word with the exact opposite meaning in the word list, for example. So it's the sort of list that would be useful for helping you build a homework vocabulary list, or just a general homework word list for whatever purpose, but it's not necessarily going to be useful if you're looking for words that mean the same thing as homework (though it still might be handy for that).

If you're looking for names related to homework (e.g. business names, or pet names), this page might help you come up with ideas. The results below obviously aren't all going to be applicable for the actual name of your pet/blog/startup/etc., but hopefully they get your mind working and help you see the links between various concepts. If your pet/blog/etc. has something to do with homework, then it's obviously a good idea to use concepts or words to do with homework.

If you don't find what you're looking for in the list below, or if there's some sort of bug and it's not displaying homework related words, please send me feedback using this page. Thanks for using the site - I hope it is useful to you! 🐖
