Before You Begin

Synonyms are added to the thesaurus using the Site Manager.  Before you begin adding synonyms, you should:


The Site Manager defines two different relationships that can be used with synonyms: one-way and two‑way:

A two-way relationship is a relationship where there is no primary term and all the terms are synonyms for each other.  An example of this would be "tv" , "television" and "telly" where no matter which term was searched on, you want to return search results that contained matches for all the terms.

Synonyms sometimes have one-way relationships with some terms and two-way relationships with other terms.  See Multi-relationship Example for an example of this.
