Product Description

Authoritative, accessible, and completely up to date, The Oxford Dictionary of Synonyms and Antonyms is an invaluable guide for anyone wanting to build their vocabulary and improve their writing skills. Over 140,000 alternative and opposite words are given with the closest, most frequently used synonyms listed first; in addition thousands of real-life examples of usage from the Oxford English Corpus enable the reader to pinpoint the relevant word quickly and easily. Also included are some useful appendices designed to improve your knowledge of the language: a new Wordfinder section offers a selection of thematic lists - from chemical elements and clothing to phobias and flowers - and a Common Confusables supplement explains the crucial differences between similar words that are often mixed up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very useful!, 7 Jun 2009

By	Ludivine (UK) - See all my reviews

As a foreigner living in the UK, I am trying to constantly improve my English in order to succesfully pass IELTS exam in the future. I find this book very useful while writing my essays, correspondence, or amateur novels. Sometimes, you just can't think of the right word to express something - that's when this wonderful little book comes in handy! I would say it's one of those must-have books for English-learners. Well worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Effectiveness of Oxford Dictionary of Synonyms and Antonyms, 4 April 2009

By	K. Joyner "Ken Joyner" (High Wycombe, Bucks., United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I found the approach of the compiler, who not only supplies a range of words but also annotates the different uses of the the subject word which may be relevant, a most useful one in assisting the selection of other synonyms which were not actually in the Dictionary. Overall I would recommend its aid in the completion of crosswords.

5.0 out of 5 stars an excellent resource, 7 Nov 2009

By	A. Walsh "toniwalsh3" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I purchased this for a friend who is studying English. They love it - especially the "commonly confused words" section near the end.
