Synonym Pudding

Abstract

Webster's Tenth Collegiate dictionary lists synonyms of headword adjectives in two ways: in small caps in the main definitions set, and at the end with the heading syn followed by a group of additional small cap synonyms. Approximately 220 of the headword adjectives merit the syn treatment, and the one thousand synonyms they dissect represent about one-sixth of the headword adjectives.
