-Start with a verb like “avoid”, and let yourself be guided by variants or alternatives such as “dodge”, “ward off”, or dozens of words or phrases that express similar notions. Try entering an expression like “from there” and find new ways to express the concept of cause and effect.
-This new concept of dictionary of synonyms and analogies, also known as a thesaurus, is based on an analysis of millions of texts in a wide variety of languages. The most appropriate words are selected using artificial intelligence technologies.
-Copy the selected term and insert it in your document, navigate between suggestions, view its translations, and obtain usage examples in context or listen to its pronunciations.
-It allows you to search for the simplest words and phrases, but also to use literary language and to alternate between styles to enrich or simplify your writing. If you are looking for familiar words or slang (such as “bucks” or “dude”), you are likely to discover highly evocative language.
-Suggestions may sometimes be surprising because they are selected by complex processes, so please let us know if there are inaccuracies so they can be corrected.
-When a word can have multiple meanings, such as “show” (as a verb: “demonstrate, display”; as a noun: “exhibition, performance”), they are clearly separated.
-Suggestions are sorted by relevance, and the first ones are bolded. You can also sort them alphabetically with the most relevant highlighted. We chose to limit the initial display to 20 items in each category, but in many cases you can show dozens more results with just one click. In addition, for words with multiple meanings you may toggle whether meanings are combined in one group or displayed separately by checking and unchecking the option “grouped”.

Has LOTS of Potential — But Needs some Improvements!
Ekgpress
What I like (as a polyglot student learning multiple languages) — is that you can instantly see a series of very helpful synonyms AND some excellent example sentences (with audio) showing how to use these words in context. PROBLEM: There is no ability to translate either the synonyms (that may have slightly different shades of meaning) OR the example sentences that you provide. IF you could simply make it so that I can SELECT (and copy) the example sentences in the language — then I could at least PASTE this in an on-line dictionary and see the translation. This could be an EASY FIX which would make this an OUTSTANDING ( = 5-star) app — but without the ability to copy the example sentences, this app is DISAPPOINTING and lacking (which is why I only gave it 2 stars ... ). Thank you for considering!
Greek????
Μας Λιος
