The Oxford dictionary and thesaurus

Abstract

This dictionary and thesaurus presents over half a million references and alternative words in a clear and practical way, using Oxford's quick-reference entry style. Each group of alternative words is linked directly, with tie-in numbering, to its corresponding dictionary definition within the same entry. Other user-friendly features include the listing of the most useful words first within selections of alternative words, grammar and usage notes, word origins, pronunciation guidance for every entry using a simple re-spelling system, and a 60-page Book of Facts, including a history of English, a guide to English usage, punctuation marks, terms for groups of animals, and selected English proverbs.
