Gaining deeper insight and knowledge of the everyday language we use helps us to enliven our communication skills and gain deeper insight into the words we use and hear everyday. This is a home Library keeper! I use it often to see the various nuances of a word I come across in news articles and magazines that peak my attention to understand more fully what the author is saying. In a speech I heard the word 'diabolical' mentioned. Pure evil. The Chambers Thesaurus is a great learning tool.

Top-tier thesaurus, and the app is totally worth the price tag. However, I believe the Dictionary app should most definitely be combined with this. I'd still not hesitate to pay the combined price tag, if the reason they remain separate is to not deter people from purchasing something that's marked higher, than the higher likelihood someone choosing to buy an app labeled half price. Hope there will be a future option to incorporate both, for the seamless experience this has potential to be

Really hate the new app icon - old one I recognised at a glance and it looked good; new one I have to focus on it to think what it is, and it's dull, dull, dull. Old one is fine within the app icon rules as long as you keep it within the clipping mask bounds with a clippable background. Please re-think: this new icon just makes the app disappear into my homescreen, it's so non-distinctive especially given the 5 other apps I have which are just red with some white on. Truly terrible decision.
