English synonyms - word: wipe

Hi natives!

I want to improve my English vocabulary.

For example, I saw on a website that the word "wipe" has a lot of synonyms.

I often see that on this website there are words that are only a little used.

I would like among these words, which words are used and the different meanings of each one:

wipe, rub, clean, dry, dust, mop, clear, wash, swab, soak up, obliterate, sop up, towel, sweep

 

If you don't want to give me a lot of explanation you could say me only which words are used, which one you prefer to use and wich is your country.

 

Thanks!
