        The word "hoard" denotes "stock or collection," while the verb "to hoard" denotes "to store, to collect, or to amass." Option 3: "Store" implies "hoard, pile, or stock" as a noun and "to accumulate, to hoard, or to pile" as a verb, which is close to the meaning of the word "hoard" that is given.
        In contrast, Option 1, "Destroy," is a verb that means "to demolish, to destroy or ruin," Option 2, "Hide," means "to conceal, to secrete or place out of sight," and Option 4, "Divide," is a verb that means "to divide, to dissect or cut," none of which are related to the meaning of the provided term.
        Therefore, Option 3 - Store is the best suitable synonym for the provided word "Hoard."
