Understanding Thesaurus Entries

When you see THES flash in the up- per right of the screen, the entered or highlighted word has a thesaurus en- try. Each thesaurus entry begins with the word’s part of speech (noun, verb, adjective, etc.) and a brief definition.

Then synonyms, Classmates, and antonyms, if any, are listed. Class- mates are words related by subject or class. Special uses, such as slang, Briticisms, and technical words, are noted in brackets.
