Description
Some 6000 commonly used - and confused - words are defined, contrasted and compared. Each entry provides a headword and group of synonyms, a definition of each word in the group, examples of the different ways in which the words can be used, figurative, positive and negative uses, comparisons between the words in the group and their relative suitability, and a list of antonyms.
