When will I need a thesaurus?
A thesaurus is a dictionary of synonyms. In writing, it is important to avoid repeating vocabulary, so you can use this tool to find words with the same or similar meaning.
Are they easy to use?
When you see your list of synonyms, you must choose carefully. Make sure you know if the words are formal or informal, positive or negative, or if there are other small differences. Check a dictionary to find out. |
