Yes, it is the same condition if you are talking about the kind of swine flu that pigs get. It is also an H1N1 type of virus, but a different strain than the 2009 pandemic Swine flu called A-H1N1/09 (see related question below for more names this is called). They are called swine flu since the original isolated virus that these are like, or are mutations of, was first a virus that only pigs got.

No, they are not.

Seasonal flu is a fairly general term for varieties of flu that come and go with the seasons.

'Swine flu' relates to one particular type of flu which is prevalent today over much of the world.

Can you get Swine Flu from avain flu?

No you cant get it from avian flu directly, because swine flu is literally pig flu, so it originated from pigs, or so the name says. Same thing for avian flu, its, bird flu. S.o no, but you can get swine flu from birds, because flus can be carried from organisms to organisms. So, cutting it short, you can't get it from avian flu, but you can get it from a bird that has swine flu. A bit tedious but that's my answer.
