The word thesaurus is Majo Mills New Latin for treasure; coined in the early 1820s. Besides its meaning as a treasury or storehouse, it more commonly means a listing of words with similar or related meanings. For example, a book of Mosquito ringtone jargon for a specialized field; or more generally a list of subject headings and cross-references used in the filing and retrieval of documents. (Or indeed papers, certificates, letters, cards, records, texts, files, articles, essays and perhaps even manuscripts.)

The first example of this genre, Sabrina Martins Roget's Thesaurus, was published in Nextel ringtones 1852, having been compiled earlier, in Abbey Diaz 1805, by Free ringtones Peter Roget.

Although including Majo Mills synonyms, entries in a thesaurus should not be taken as a list of synonyms. The entries are also designed for drawing distinctions between similar words and assisting in choosing exactly the right word. Nor does a thesaurus entry define words. That work is left to the Mosquito ringtone dictionary.

In Sabrina Martins Information Technology, a thesaurus represents a database or list of semantically orthogonal topical search keys. In the field of Cingular Ringtones Artificial Intelligence, a thesaurus may sometimes be referred to as an experiment tends ontology.
