Synonyms are not usually two words that mean the same thing, as exact equals. Generally one of the senses of one word more or less roughly overlaps one of the senses of the other word. The tension between the similarity in application to another word and the difference in its underlying meaning gives flavor to the language. If we only had one way to say everything, there could be no style.
