✅ Walk and jaunt can both refer to journeys made at an easy to moderate pace (I went for a walk around the neighborhood; We decided to go on a quick jaunt and see if we could find any interesting stores).
✅ A walk can be any length or have any purpose, and it is a pretty general term (I go on a long walk every weekend; I never got my license because I can walk everywhere I need to go).
✅ A jaunt doesn’t have to be done by walking, and includes elements of fun and whimsy (We went on a jaunt around the city).

✅ Stormy suggests that something is behaving the way it does when there is a storm, whether or not there actually is one (stormy sea; stormy sky).
✅ Blustery describes something characterized by a strong wind which comes in gusts (It’s blustery out on the lake at this time of year).
✅ Stormy does not necessarily entail wind, but often it does (The stormy clouds were enough encouragement to move the party inside). Blustery is only used when there is wind present, whether it is stormy or sunny (On his walk, the blustery wind blew off his hat).
✅ Both words suggest strong and turbulent weather, and blustery conditions can sometimes suggest that a storm is on the way (They decided not to risk going outside on such a blustery day).

✅ Growth and prosperity aren’t direct synonyms, but they are related concepts and one is often used when talking about the other.
✅ Growth refers to a process of development or a stage of development (his slow but consistent growth; the trees will be beautiful once they reach their full growth).
✅ Prosperity refers to a condition in which someone or something is succeeding or thriving, especially in a financial sense (Her early career was characterized by joy and prosperity).
✅ Often, through growth, someone or something will reach a stage in which it is particularly thriving, in other words, a state of prosperity.
