Careful Words

Explore a little bit more than a thesaurus with Careful Words. Dive into the world of unusual synonyms and historical quotes to give more inspiration to your writing.

"I began this in late September purely on the whims of frustration with thesaurus.com, which does not bother to focus the input box! So I made my own site that focuses the input box. And because I wanted a thesaurus where I could type just the term in the address bar (eg type carefulwords.com/word) to get my results.

It is very rough around the edges right now. There are far too many synonyms, which themselves are only organized alphabetically. I hope to take the site in a more inspiring direction over time than merely synonyms. Perhaps euphemisms, or other poetic uses from the past, or author commentary, or something altogether different." - author on - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33226817
