American Oxford Thesaurus
body
body noun 1 the human body: figure, frame, form, physique, anatomy, skeleton; soma; informal bod. 2 he was hit by shrapnel in the head and body: torso, trunk. 3 the body was exhumed: corpse, carcass, skeleton, remains; informal stiff; Medicine cadaver. 4 the body of the essay: main part, central part, core, heart. 5 a body of water: expanse, mass, area, stretch, tract, sweep, extent. 6 a growing body of evidence: quantity, amount, volume, collection, mass, corpus. 7 the representative body of the employers: association, organization, group, party, company, society, circle, syndicate, guild, corporation, contingent. 8 add body to your hair: fullness, thickness, substance, bounce, lift, shape. PHRASES body and soul I belong to him body and soul: completely, entirely, totally, utterly, fully, thoroughly, wholeheartedly, unconditionally, to the hilt. CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORD body, cadaver, carcass, corpse, cremains, remains The problem of what to call the human body after it has departed this life is a delicate one. Although a body can be either dead or alive, human or animal, a corpse is most definitely a dead human body and a carcass is the body of a dead animal. The issue has been confused, of course, by the figurative use of carcass as a term of contempt (“Get your carcass out of bed and come down here! ”). While carcass is often used humorously, there's nothing funny about corpse, a no-nonsense term for a lifeless physical body (the battlefield was littered with corpses ). A funeral director is likely to prefer the term remains, which is a euphemism for the body of the deceased (he had his wife's remains shipped home for burial ), or cremains, if the body has been cremated. A medical student, on the other hand, is much more likely to use the term cadaver, which is a corpse that is dissected in a laboratory for scientific study. These notes show fine distinctions in meaning between closely related synonyms to help you find the best word.
bodyguard
bodyguard noun the singer's former bodyguard: guard, personal guard, protector, guardian, defender; escort, chaperon /chaperone; informal heavy, goon, hired gun.
