KThesaurus at work.

Trying to find the right word when writing?  Can’t seem to put your finger on the exact word to help express an idea?  Then, obviously,  you need a thesaurus.

But, if you run Linux, you’ll have KThesaurus at your fingertips!  KThesaurus is fantastic, grand, marvelous, terrific, tremendous, wonderful, wondrous and extraordinarily good!  It’s simply great! (See? I’m using it already!)

KThesaurus comes with the KOffice suite which is easily installed through a Linux repository (the online “warehouse” where you get all your Linux software for your Linux computer).

KThesaurus is also tied into Wordnet. Wordnet is a “…s a large lexical database of English,…Nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are grouped into sets of cognitive synonyms (synsets), each expressing a distinct concept.”  In other words, Wordnet is a spectacular combination of both dictionary and thesaurus!

You can easily use Wordnet online.  But with when you run Linux, you’l have Wordnet available in a stand alone app (Kthesaurus) at the ready whenever you need it.

I have I KThesaurus on one of my tool bars.  It’s just a click away when I need to find a word. it’s quickly becominjg one of mymost valuble blogging tols.

So, get Linux and give KOffice and KThesaurus a try!  You won’t regret it. (You won’t lament, rue, bemoan or deplore it, either.)
