A thesaurus is a reference tool that provides synonyms and antonyms for words, helping writers find more precise or varied word choices. It enhances writing by allowing for richer, more nuanced language and preventing repetition, ultimately improving clarity and engagement.

A thesaurus is a book or tool that gives you different words that mean the same thing (synonyms) or the opposite (antonyms). It can help your writing by making it more interesting and letting you use cooler words instead of repeating the same ones.
