This world has many, many languages. It is impossible to learn them all. Many of us speak and read one, and have studied one or two, but we are still very limited in communicating with the rest of the world.

Thankfully we have translators that we can rely on. But even the best ones can fail us due to the complexities of our languages. In fact the English language not only makes need of a dictionary, but of a thesaurus, also. A thesaurus is a compilation of all the words that mean the same.
