Every writer should know what this word means, so I thought it would make an awesome word of the week for us:
"thesaurus"
Meaning: a synonym for a given word, or at least another word with a similar meaning
Example: If you search for a thesaurus of the verb "to ask", you might come up with other verbs like "to demand", "to inquire", or "to request".
Did you know that Microsoft Word, for example, has a built in thesaurus function?
Language ... the bridge of communication, the magic creator of worlds, the brush and paint of authors. Language is magic. It gives us power. It is something you just have to love.
