THESAURUS has two meanings, so there may be at least two possibilities.
1. A book of synonyms, often including related and contrasting words and antonyms.
synonym = "synonymicon" (or you might use a 'brand name', e.g., "look it up in your Roget's" just as you might use "Webster's" as a general term for dictionary)
2. A book of selected words or concepts, such as a specialized vocabulary of a particular field, as of medicine or music.
synonym: "lexicon"

Another word for thesaurus is synonym book or reference because it is a book with words with the same meaning. This is useful when you lost words related to what word you are thinking. Thesaurus is not that complicated compared to the dictionary which is a complete, while the thesaurus is not. But they are in some terms the same. The thesaurus is just synonyms of words.

use more interesting descriptive language, and try to set more of an atmosphere. also, use the thesaurus to replace words like "confidence" and "bravery" with something else. All you really need to do is add more decoration to your writing, nothing major.
