Dear teachers,
I amd reading an article on vocabulary and I get confused by terms synonyms and near-synonyms.
For example, the article reads:
error, mistake, slip, and blunder are near-synonyms.
I used to think they are synonyms. Could you please explain the difference between synonyms and near-synonyms?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you in advance.
