  • One type of dictionary is a thesaurusWhen
    searching for words to write essays, reports ,
    books, or articles, people often have a few handy
    resources to help with the block, creativity,
    grammar, and clarity of writers. The resource
    list will most often include a regular
    dictionary, note cards, a thesaurus, some other
    reference material, or just an internet-access
    computer.For writers the best resource is some
    kind of referencing aid. So it's a key concept to
    know that every person who sits down to write is
    different and will have another reason to write.
    The next noteworthy item is that not always do
    most people understand their resources. Thesaurus
    is the very best resource source.What exactly is
    the thesaurus?To put it simply, the thesaurus is
    a reference book or website that lists words
    arranged and grouped by a similar meaning that
    can end up being synonyms or antonyms.Do you want

  • This is different from the dictionary,
    since the dictionary is used to actually define,
    punctuate, and dictate the use of a word in some
    cases. A synonym is a word that is searched for
    having the same or similar meaning. The Antonym
    is a word with the opposite meaning or a
    contrasting one. In either case those similar
    words or contrasting words are grouped next to
    the searched word.Who makes use of a
    thesaurus?Not everyone actually uses a writer's
    thesaurus and this is a big problem. Writing can
    become drab, routine, or copied because everybody
    is saying exactly the same thing when trying to
    pen any item that might be similar to another in
    the subject. The reality is that this may also
    cause a supposition that even though it is not,
    the writing may be plagiarised. A writer might
    come up with his own concept or idea, not need a
    new one, but if it's said the same way someone
    else said it, then the words can be considered
    plagiarised. The fact is that software that
    searches for groups of copied words picks up most
    plagiarising. A thesaurus is a good way of
    preventing that from happening. Do you want to

  • Writers, students , teachers, researchers,
    journalists or other authors make use of the
    thesaurus. Simple writers, like content writers,
    might be writing about the same thing in seven
    groups, having a variation of words to use is a
    great tool. Students need to be able to tell in a
    report or essay what they are saying in a way
    that reflects their own personality. Researchers
    need the thesaurus to render their writing less
    technical and more readable. Journalists are the
    most misunderstood group, as they are the ones to
    whom most words ideas actually come to. The
    journalists are the most creative group and have
    to make sure their reporting usage is
    accurate.Why does a thesaurus matter?The
    thesaurus is truly the second most important
    resource or reference material because it helps
    writers to become boring, it keeps down the
    instances of suspected plagiarism, and it can
    help them to understand what is actually said.
    Though not a dictionary itself, the thesaurus can
    sometimes act as a dictionary instead. The
    thesaurus can also help to define a word when
    there is no dictionary, and help to better
    clarify which definition the author or writer
    might actually use.Do you want to learn more?
