The Core Fluency Thesaurus is a dedicated fluency-oriented vocabulary building book - and the first thesaurus of its kind. From none other than Prof. Kev Nair, the world's foremost authority on fluency building. It groups together, under headwords, word groups that express meanings similar to, or somewhat similar to, its important meanings. These are groups of words that individual words tend to form with other words, with a more-than-chance frequency: Phrases, collocations, phrasal verbs, idioms and other multi-word items that have the property of adding to your fluency. The author has marked how relatively frequent/important (for fluency training) a headword is with the indicators 'AAA', 'AA' and 'A'. Headwords marked 'AAA' are more frequent/important than those marked 'AA' and 'A'. And headwords marked 'AA' are more frequent/important than those marked 'A'.
