The word synonyms is a word or phrase that means exactly or nearly the same as another word or phrase in the same language. Synonym words are said to be synonyms , and the condition being synonyms is called synonyms . For example, the words start , start , start , and start all synonymous with each other. Words are usually identical in one sense: for example, length and extended in the context of long or extended time is a synonym, but length can not be used in the large family phrase. Synonymous with the exact same meaning of shared seme or denotational sememe, whereas those with the same meaning are not equally shared denotational or broader semen connotations and thereby overlap in semantic fields. The first is sometimes called cognitive synonyms and the latter, almost-synonymous, plesionyms or poecilonyms.

Some lexicographers claim that no synonym has exactly the same meaning (in all social contexts or levels of language) because etymology, orthography, phonetic quality, ambiguous meanings, usage, etc. make it unique. Different words that are similar in meaning are usually different for a reason: cats are more formal than cats ; long and extended is only synonymous in one usage and not in another (for example, long arm is not the same as extended arm ). Synonym is also a source of euphemism.
Metonymy can sometimes be a synonym: the White House is used as a synonym of administration in reference to a branch of a US executive under a particular president. So metonym is a type of synonym, and the word metonym is the hyponym of the word synonym .
Analysis of synonyms, polysemics, hyponimi, and hypernymy is inherent in taxonomy and ontology in the scientific sense of those terms. It has applications in pedagogy and machine learning, as they rely on word-sense disambiguation.

In English, many synonyms appeared in the Middle Ages, after Norman's conquest of England. While the new English ruling class spoke with Norman French, the lower classes continued to speak Old English (Anglo-Saxon). So today we have synonyms like those who are descended from Norman, the freedom of the and archers , and the Saxon group> , freedom and archers . For more examples, see the list of Germanic and Latinate equations in English.
