Walking Thesaurus

A walking thesaurus is a person with good vocabulary who knows many definitions of words. A thesaurus is a book that lists words in groups of synonyms and related concepts which is usually called a dictionary, hence the word walking refers to the human being.

Person 1: I know what odd means, I did English home language at school.
