My dear "mellow fellow"...(reminds me at the old Beatles song "They call ma mellow yellow"...) smile ! Well...I must say, that's a "big order", you wish to fulfill, honey!!! I really doubt, if such an endeavor is even possible to achieve, because the Thesaurus is such a comprehensive book...There is nowhere in the world, you'll be able to "memorize" the contents, sweetie! I don't think it's "humanly possible" to memorize a whole Thesaurus, but that's why such dictionaries exist...so you can look up the information you need ! But...I still wish you good luck in the process! Wish you all the best for the future !
