A thesaurus is a book that you use to find other words to describe something. But what's another word for that book? To answer your question, I headed over to our Thesaurus category, where I found a listing for Roget's Thesaurus. In the search bar, I typed in the word "thesaurus," and here is what I found:
"dictionary, vocabulary, lexicon, index, glossary, thesaurus, gradus, delectus, concordance."
All of those words would do in a pinch, but I think the best word for thesaurus is probably just thesaurus.

Apparently, "dust collector" could easily be one.
(okay, that's TWO words...but what the heck...)
