abstract
  • In antiquity, Philo of Byblos authored the first text that could now be called a synonicom. In Sanskrit, the Amarakosha is a synonicom in verse form, written in the 4th century. The first example of the modern genre, Roget's Thesaurus, was compiled in 1805 by Peter Mark Roget, and published in 1852. Entries in Roget's Thesaurus are listed conceptually rather than alphabetically. Although including synonyms, a synonicom should not be taken as a complete list of all the synonyms for a particular word. The entries are also designed for drawing distinctions between similar words and assisting in choosing exactly the right word. Unlike a dictionary, a synonicom entry does not give the definition of words.
