Oxford Learner'S Thesaurus+app: A Dictionary Of Synonyms

No two words mean exactly the same. The Oxford Learner's Thesaurus helps you to understand the differences between similar words in written and spoken English and find the right words to say exactly what you mean.

The Oxford Learner's Thesaurus groups words with similar meanings and explains the differences between them. It is a dictionary of synonyms and opposites that helps learners of English distinguish between similar words and use them correctly. Students can also explore the entire Thesaurus on the Oxford Learner's Thesaurus app.

The Oxford Learner's Thesaurus helps you understand the differences between familiar words such as "easy" and "simple", while learning words you may not know such as "painless" and "plain sailing". Each entry has a group of 3-10 synonyms, and each synonym is clearly explained in terms of meaning, grammar and register. Example sentences show how each synonym is used, while notes highlight and explain synonyms that are particularly close in meaning or easily confused.
