in other words

I was having a discussion  with michael over lunch, about other words for “thesaurus”. I could swear I saw one used somewhere that was along the lines of “omnilexigraph” or the like.

Couldn’t find anythough, so I created one. It’s “lexibus”.

Usage example: “‘fabiform’? Thats not a real word! It’s not even in the lexibus!”

  1. If only there were a book that contained list of words with similar meanings… ;)

    From the thesaurus:

    Main Entry: thesaurus
    Part of Speech: noun
    Definition: dictionary of synonyms and antonyms
    Synonyms: glossary, language reference book, lexicon, onomasticon, reference book, sourcebook, storehouse of words, terminology, treasury of words, vocabulary, word list

    Maybe you were thinking of ‘lexicon’?
