Oxford Thesaurus of English

This thesaurus is a synonym dictionary of contemporary British and wider English, arranged so that a headword leads to clusters of near-equivalents, opposites, and related terms, often with example phrases and usage notes. It covers slang, technical registers, and regional variants as well as standard prose vocabulary. The work is a reference tool for finding alternative wording, not a narrative or an essay on language. Its method is descriptive grouping by sense rather than a simple list of interchangeable words, so that a user can see which substitutes fit a given meaning and which belong to another sense of the same headword.
