Description and Table of Contents
Description
A work which defines, contrasts and compares over 6000 commonly-used - and confused - words in current usage. Each entry provides: a headword and group of synonyms; full and clear 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 words in relation to different nuance and register; and a list of antonyms. Alphabetical arrangement of entries, clear cross-referencing and a full and comprehensive index make consultation easy.
