Well, first of all, absorbed means to suck up - like a sponge sucks up water. So to put it in a sentence you could have:

  • The sponge absorbed all the water on the table quickly.
  • The child absorbed the information the teacher was giving to her. (as in processed, or understood, or listened - to take up the whole attention to it)

Some synonyms for the word 'absorb' are:

  • soak up
  • consume
  • devour
  • engorge
  • engulf
  • swallow up
  • take up
  • engage
  • engross
  • immerse
  • occupy

Hope that helps!
