synonyms for \ri-ˈsē-vər\

I find it difficult while writing proposals for spaces, in this blog, on facebook and in emails to avoid using the word receive ie "Any funds we receive....", "Any submissions we receive...", "If you give to kickstarter then you will receive...". It is annoying but a good sign that we have named this festival well.

Just as a fun exercise I looked up words that are related to 'receive'.

Some of these are stretches:
entertain
take
enter
welcome
fellowship
confirm
obtain
ratify

ooo ooo and on the merriam webster website also has rhymes:
achiever
orb weaver....(wtf?)
believer
conceiver
upheaver
reliever
perceiver

The definition itself on the website us ubber boring and official sounding.
