Some of the advantages over Common Dictionaries, having Indispensable resources for writers, scholars, and language enthusiasts, include:

• Navigate the complexities of meaning, offering an exploration of synonyms, antonyms, and semantic associations that enhance communication.

• Deeper understanding of words revealing the interconnectedness of language, offering insights into how words and concepts are related.

• Nuanced comprehension and usage of language, surpassing the limitations of mere definitions.

• Explore not just what words mean, but how they relate to other words and concepts (e.g. from ‘dog’ to ‘canine’).

• Linguistic treasure trove revealing the semantic richness and versatility of words.

-----

About content:

• It is encyclopedic.

• Unparalleled thesaurus, as it presents synonyms associated with a single concept (meaning), allowing the (almost) perfect replacement of one for the other.

• Concise definitions and numerous examples.

• Unique as a dictionary of interjections, prefixes, and suffixes, as it semantically associates them with the concepts to which they apply. For example:

o Given the entry liturgical, one can obtain the interjections: Christ, alleluia, begorra, Bismillah, etc.

o Given the entry bad, in the concept of "negative qualities," one can obtain the prefixes caco- (cacophony) and mis- (misdeed).

o Given the entry ability, in the concept of "the quality of being able," one can obtain the suffixes -ability (adj. available -> noun availability), -craft (housecraft), and -ship (musicianship).
