A thesaurus (pl.: thesauri or thesauruses), sometimes called a synonym dictionary or dictionary of synonyms, is a reference work which arranges words by their meanings (or in simpler terms, a book where one can find different words with similar meanings to other words), [1] [2] sometimes as a hierarchy of broader and narrower terms, sometimes simply as lists of synonyms and antonyms.
A synonym is a word, morpheme, or phrase that means precisely or nearly the same as another word, morpheme, or phrase in a given language. [2] For example, in the English language , the words begin , start , commence , and initiate are all synonyms of one another: they are synonymous .
Jargon, also referred to as "technical language", is "the technical terminology or characteristic idiom of a special activity or group". [8] Most jargon is technical terminology (technical terms), involving terms of art [9] or industry terms, with particular meaning within a specific industry.

A homophone (/ ˈ h ɒ m ə f oʊ n, ˈ h oʊ m ə-/) is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but differs in meaning or in spelling. The two words may be spelled the same, for example rose (flower) and rose (past tense of "rise"), or spelled differently, as in rain, reign, and rein.
Zion (Hebrew: צִיּוֹן, romanized: Ṣīyyōn, [a] LXX Σιών) is a placename in the Tanakh, often used as a synonym for Jerusalem [3] [4] as well as for the Land of Israel as a whole. The name is found in 2 Samuel ( 2 Sam 5:7 ), one of the books of the Tanakh dated to approximately the mid-6th century BCE.
When one encounters a cue for a target word, the level of recognition is assessed, and a strong level of recognition will elicit a tip of the tongue state. [2] It has been found that cues that are repetitive tend to create more TOTs than if one single cue is given. [2] This might suggest that cue factors can play a role in causing TOT states. [2]
