[QUOTE="Occams Barber, post: 76616189, member: 313365"] Your teacher was right - sort of. It's rare to find two words with [I]exactly[/I] the same meaning. Often the meaning of one word may 'overlap' with another. The meanings will match at the overlap but each word may also have a number of alternate, different meanings. English added lots of synonyms following the invasion of Britain in 1066. Blame the French. OB [/QUOTE]
