A synonym is a word with the same meaning (or nearly the same) as another word. For example, a synonym for boat is ship. Not all synonyms can be used in all contexts, because words have specific connotations.

Synonyms are words that mean the same, or about the same, as another word.

Words having the same meaning as each other are synonyms.

Not all synonyms can replace each other for every given context.

Most words have specific as well as general meanings.

For instance, a synonym for lazy is slothful.
