Book excerpt: “English Thesaurus” is a reading book that is very suitable for study by a wide audience who want to increase knowledge in a foreign language, namely English. Thesaurus is different from an ordinary English dictionary. For those of you who are still taking online English courses at the beginner level, to use the thesaurus, you still need one additional book, namely an English dictionary because Thesaurus does not include the meaning of words, only synonyms and antonyms. Thesaurus is very useful in enriching your English vocabulary. Sometimes, the lack of vocabulary you have makes it difficult to find the right words to convey an idea or express what you are thinking. With a thesaurus, you can search for more precise words to minimize misunderstandings. "The Collins English Thesaurus", in durable hardback format and with entry words in color, gives the maximum choice of alternatives with over 300,000 synonyms and antonyms. It is ideal for everyday use at home, school and work and includes a 64 page supplement designed for Crosswords, Scrabble and word game lovers. This thesaurus contains thousands of alternative words and opposites, plus usage features to help with language choice and style. Expert guidance is given on language use, covering the choice of synonyms for different types of writing, and guidance on tailoring writing styles and word choice for the intended audience.
