What does synonymous mean?

Answer 1

A synonym is a word that means the same or nearly the same as another word.

Synonyms are different words with similar or identical meanings, and may be interchangeable. (They are synonymous with each other.)

This happens frequently in English because it is based on a Germanic language with an admixture of Latin and French, which gives rise to words from each source that mean the same thing e.g. will (Germanic) and testament (French)

Answer 2

The adjective synonymous means "having similar meanings or uses."

It is most often used for words that have about the same meaning (they are synonyms), e.g. big is synonymous with large.

It is used metaphorically for conditions that have similar characteristics or results, e.g. In developing countries, overpopulation is synonymous with poverty.

Answer 3

A synonym is a word that means the same thing as another word. For example, obvious and conspicuous. They mean the same thing, but they are two different words.
