Online command-line thesaurus?

This here has answers for an Online thesaurus. I need an offline thesaurus for the commandline. If there is none, is there a library available in the repos containing something like a database for synonymns and antonymns that I can use to make an application with?

Thanks.

pdftotext 'MyThesaurus.pdf' - | grep -A2 -B2 dog | less

that is 2 lines before and 2 lines after

It would work best if the thesaurus had a format like each adjective at https://www.merriam-webster.com/thesaurus/each

dog adjective

the you could search for

dog adjective or dog noun or dog verb etc

write a script that does all that and takes a word as input like

sh mythesaurus.sh dog

Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
