Of course that would work. But it would also look odd for native users (especially those without English skills) if suddenly their thesaurus speaks English even if that happens only for the explanations. However if we are going to require that each thesaurus maintainer needs to modify the dictionary to help fix this it could be done by introducing a new additional tag that needs to be added to antonyms. E.g. "[A]", "<#A>" or something similar.
