We'll let the readers be the judge. If you think "regular", "normal", "usual" and "routine" mean the same thing, I'd just have to add "synonymous" to get a list

from here:

- argumentum 13y agoThat was exactly my point, "synonym" != "the same thing", it's a bit more nuanced than that and requires the context in which the words are used. Only a 3rd grader thinks its ok to trot out their thesaurus and willy nilly replace words. (also, from reading this thread, I don't seem to be the only one who thinks your english leaves something to be desired)
