\"KThesaurus<\/a><\/p>\n

KThesaurus at work.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Trying to find the right word when writing?\u00a0 Can’t seem to put your finger on the exact word to help express an idea?\u00a0 Then, obviously,\u00a0 you need a thesaurus.<\/p>\n

\n

But, if you run Linux, you’ll have KThesaurus at your fingertips!\u00a0 KThesaurus is fantastic, grand, marvelous, terrific, tremendous, wonderful, wondrous and extraordinarily good!\u00a0 It’s simply great! (See? I’m using it already!)<\/p>\n

\n

\n

\n

\n

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

\n

\n

KThesaurus is also tied into Wordnet.<\/a> Wordnet<\/a> 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.”\u00a0 In other words, Wordnet is a spectacular combination of both dictionary and thesaurus!<\/p>\n

\n

\n

You can easily use Wordnet online<\/a>.\u00a0 But with when you run Linux, you’l have Wordnet available in a stand alone app (Kthesaurus) at the ready whenever you need it.<\/p>\n

\n

\n

\n

I have I KThesaurus on one of my tool bars.\u00a0 It’s just a click away when I need to find a word. it’s quickly becominjg one of mymost valuble blogging tols.<\/p>\n

\n

So, get Linux<\/a> and give KOffice and KThesaurus a try!\u00a0 You won’t regret it. (You won’t lament, rue, bemoan or deplore it, either.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
