We often come across situations where we are unable to find good words and use them in suitable sentences. Thesaurus is a useful word finder. The synonyms given here have been, to some extent, edited by me. I am trying to present a more abridged yet useful, improved and modernised version.
Just type a word or part of a word in the search box and get a set of words and some proverbs/quotes which use those words.
