Though a Few of These Entries may look like "Lists of #Synonyms," This IS NOT a #Thesaurus! For that, try @thesauruscom | @BabaMail_Com #Synonym #Synonymous #Syonymy #Synonymity
Often, 'the main word for a post's topic' will be 'a word I've already "posted."'
That's when I go to the page I linked through 'those words' below; you can go check it out now, but first I want to help you understand those words better. And I find you understand words better if you look at 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum)
The word “Thesaurus (\ #Thesauruses OR #Thesauri both work, maybe #Thesaurae?)” is built on ancient words that mean "to Put or Place in a Treasury or Storehouse" (on the notion of #ThesaurusVerborum "a Treasury of Words").
The word “Synonyms (though the link also finds antonyms)” is built on ancient words that mean Same (Together) Name.
