answer to some argument or attack; a retort may also be witty, but is severe and may be even savage in its
intensity.
Prepositions:
An answer in writing, or by word of mouth, to the question.

ANTICIPATE.
Synonyms:
apprehend, forecast, hope, expect, foretaste, look forward to.
To anticipate may be either to take before in fact or to take before in thought; in the former sense it is allied
with prevent; in the latter, with the synonyms above given. This is coming to be the prevalent and favorite
use. We expect that which we have good reason to believe will happen; as, a boy expects to grow to manhood.
We hope for that which we much desire and somewhat expect. We apprehend what we both expect and fear.
Anticipate is commonly used now, like foretaste, of that which we expect both with confidence and pleasure.
In this use it is a stronger word than hope, where often "the wish is father to the thought." I hope for a visit
from my friend, tho I have no word from him; I expect it when he writes that he is coming; and as the time
draws near I anticipate it with pleasure. Compare ABIDE; PREVENT.
Antonyms:
despair of, doubt, dread, fear, recall, recollect, remember. distrust,

ANTICIPATION.
Synonyms:
antepast, expectation, foresight, hope, apprehension, foreboding, foretaste, presentiment, expectancy, forecast,
forethought, prevision.
Expectation may be either of good or evil; presentiment almost always, apprehension and foreboding always,
of evil; anticipation and antepast, commonly of good. Thus, we speak of the pleasures of anticipation. A
foretaste may be of good or evil, and is more than imaginary; it is a part actually received in advance.
Foresight and forethought prevent future evil and secure future good by timely looking forward, and acting
upon what is foreseen. Compare ANTICIPATE.
Antonyms:
astonishment, despair, dread, fear, surprise, consummation, doubt, enjoyment, realization, wonder.
