To replace a word

To insert a word


You can use the thesaurus to refine your writing style. The thesaurus lets you look up options such as synonyms, antonyms, and related words.

You can replace a word by using the thesaurus. When you look up a word, the thesaurus provides a short definition and a list of the lookup options selected. The thesaurus does not specify word forms for verbs that appear the same in both the present and past tense and words used as multiple parts of speech words used as multiple parts of speech. The thesaurus lets you choose the correct word form to insert or replace in a document. The thesaurus also maintains a history list of the words that you have looked up. Each time you start the thesaurus, it begins a new history list.

You can also insert words with the thesaurus.
