Do you think it would be possible...

I dont understand it, explain in simple terms for *******s like me.

*Searches for ''hello''*
*Finds more words for ''hello''*
*Picks the word ''greetings''*
*Goes to ''greetings''*
*Finds more words for ''greetings''*
*Picks the word ''aquaintance''*
*Goes to ''aquaintance''*
*Finds more words for ''aquaintance''*
Lets say another word under ''aquaintance'' was ''goodbye.''
Then you've gone from ''hello'' to ''goodbye'' by scanning the other words and eventually ending up with a word which is the opposite of the first word you picked.

I hope this has cleared things up for you.

I think talking about it has made me realise its probably possible. since words have different meanings. Anyways its for a project, i hope to write 30 pages of other meanings spiralling from the start word. I will let you know if i succeed.

I thought that haha! At first I didn't think it was possible, but then I thought into it a little bit more and it's changed my perception of the idea. I think if it was possible then it'd be very hard to find a word to start/end up with haha.

yea... its taking me about 2 weeks to come up with this, i kinda like to take a step beack and observe before i rush in so i have about 2 weeks left. ;-)

Oh, nice haha! Good luck with future discoveries!

I think he means by going through a whole range of words until you get to the opposite meaning. Kinda like what happens on Wikipedia sometimes, where you follow link after link after link. Although, I believe a thesaurus is limited to what words you can follow?

i admit i might end up in a loop of the same words appearing, but meh, i can always improvise and use 'slang' words or whatever.

Taking a word, using a thesaurus to look at other words and finally get to the original words antonym. It's genius!

I'm sure it's possible but with hello and bye I doubt it.

Yeah as Brandon said it's probably possible with some words but certainly not something as simple as hello and bye. Good question though!
