Category:Word Manual

This category is an online dictionary and thesaurus created by my English students. It is meant to encourage word study and vocabulary development.

Ideally, each word page should include the following elements:

• Definition
• Origin
• Pronunciation
• Related Words
• Synonyms
• Antonyms
• Easily Confused Words
• Sample Sentences
• Examples from Literature

For an example of this, see gauche.

Creating New Word Entries

To create a new word page, you must be registered and logged in. See the Main Page for information on this.

Once you are logged in, first search for the word you intend to edit. If it exists, you will get a link to it. If it does not exist, you will have an option to create that page.

Once on that new page, copy the below code and paste it into the editor:

==Definition==

==Origin==

==Pronunciation==

==Related Words==

==Synonyms==

==Antonyms==

==Easily Confused Words==

==Sample Sentences==
''Sample sentences should always be in italics. ''

==Examples from Literature==
