>Communication implies much more: there is a specific aura surrounding each of the synonyms. <
That's really what I mean about the underlying and wonderful delight of language. Especially when you consider that the subtle differentiation between two synonyms in one person's mind can be a lot less than the difference between one single word in two people's mind.
IT's actually amazing that we ever communicate at all.
(My last post was meant to be tongue in cheek - I should have put some markup in to signify that in the absence of tone of voice!)
