Проблеми граматичної синонімії в англійській мові

Apart from antonyms, i.e. senses opposed to each other (wrong and right), and hyponymy: sense of one word included in the sense of the other (triumph as hyponym of success, profound as hyponym of deep), semantic relations between words also include the relation of synonymy, the importance of synonymy being universally approved, as the problem of the equivalence of meaning sets the core for the study of a language. The present work aims to give a more detailed account on what grammatical synonymy is and how it is represented in English. It is by no means easy to treat all such possible instances (as English is very rich and diversified in this sense), but the current study is interested mainly in the grammatical synonymy regarding the verbal field and in terms of Standard International English (Standard American English has been deliberately left out, since vast differences occur between the two of them). Grammatical synonymy is very well represented in the domain of the verbal group, not to disregard that it occurs also in the case of the nouns, pronouns, comparison of adjectives, etc.; but, it is essentially revealed by the verbal group.
