Using the Thesaurus

. . . . .

6. Next, some synonyms for the word will be listed. You can do any of the 

following:
•

If you see a word that you want to use, move the cursor next to it and 
press enter.

If you want to look up additional words, press L.

If you want to see antonyms (words with the opposite meaning), press 
A.

If you want to go back and choose a different category, press C.

If you want to leave the thesaurus without doing anything, press esc.

7. If you chose to replace the word, move the cursor to choose one of these 

options and press enter:
•

Replace the original word in your file.

Copy the word you chose to the clipboard so you can paste it 
elsewhere.

Do a new search in the thesaurus for the word you selected.

Depending on what you choose, you’re either returned to your file or to the 
thesaurus.

You can replace NEO’s thesaurus with a Spanish-English word lookup utility. 
The word lookup operates the same as the thesaurus, but you type in Spanish 
words to find their English equivalents.

Note: You can’t have both the English thesaurus and the Spanish-English 
word lookup installed on a NEO. You must choose one.

If you decide to replace the thesaurus on your NEO with the Spanish-English 
word lookup, you can use AlphaSmart Manager to do this. See page 117 for 
details. Once you’ve installed the word lookup, follow the steps below to type 
a Spanish word and find its English equivalent.

1. In AlphaWord Plus, press ctrl-t. The word lookup (labeled Thesaurus) 

appears.
