java - Thesaurus Application -

I need to implement a thesaurus application in Java that will retrieve the synonyms of a user's input.

If user input is a word then do something like this:

1. Create a hashtable that uses
2. Store synonyms in a list or string array
3. Add Key and Synonyms in the hash table
4. When the user The word print prints

I am thinking that it is homework and you will decode the dictionary and synonyms
