The book is designed for ease of use, with thumb tabs on every page and all entry words highlighted in bold. This layout means that you can be sure to find all the information you need in the quickest time possible. A dictionary is a kind of reference book that explains the meaning of words. Dictionary serves to help someone recognize new words. In addition to explaining the meaning of words, dictionaries may also have guidelines for the designation, origin of a word and also examples of usage for a word. To clarify, sometimes there are also illustrations in the dictionary. Whereas the thesaurus is a reference list of vocabulary that is grouped based on similarity in meaning (containing synonyms or antonyms), in contrast to dictionaries, which provide definitions of words, and generally list them in alphabetical order. The main purpose of references is so that users can find the most appropriate vocabulary to express ideas. Although it includes synonyms, the thesaurus should not be taken as a complete list of all synonyms for a particular word. Entries are also designed to draw differences between similar words and help in choosing the right words. Unlike dictionaries, thesaurus entries do not provide word definitions.
