Because of run-on words (like cunningly and cunningness under cunning), a dictionary that claims 150,000 entries may have no more than 80,000 headwords. There are not as many headwords as one might expect to find in other books of this size. Entering a word in the Synonym box calls up a list of headwords in alphabetical order.
