N. N. Amosova stresses the patterned character of the phrases in question, the regularity of connection between the structure of the phrase and the resulting semantic effect. She also points out that there may be cases when phrases of this pattern have undergone a shift of meaning and turned into phraseological units quite different in meaning from, and not synonymical with, the verbs of the same root. This is the case with to give a lift, to give somebody quite a turn, etc.
Quite frequently synonyms, mostly stylistically, hut sometimes ideographic as well, are due to shortening, e. g. memorandum: memo; vegetables: vegs; margarine: merge; microphone: mike; popular (song]: pop (song).
One should not overlook the fact that conversion may also be a source of synonymy; it accounts for such pairs as commandment: ceriman, laughter: laugh. The problem in this connection is whether such cases should be regarded as synonyms or as lexical variants of one arid the same word. It seems more logical to consider them, as lexical variants. Cf. also cases of different affixation: anxiety: anxiousness, effectively;: effectiveness, and loss of affixes: amongst:; among or await: wait.
Essence of synonymy, synonymous relations between words yore attracted and still attracts the attention of linguists, who develop the problems of semasiology, since decision of the problems of synonymy is closely connected with antonym and polysemy and the studying of synonyms is important not only for semasiology, but as well as for lexicography, literature studying, methodic of teaching the English language, etc.spite of the existence of relatively large numbers of the studies, denoted to the opening of the different sides to synonymy , hitherto there is no a unity glance in respect to determinations of the synonyms, methods of their study, principles of the separation and categorizations of the synonyms, and borders of the synonymous row.majority of scholars share the opinion that synonymy presents by itself the microcircuit of the language, which is characterized by their own relations and that it falls into quality of the component part in lexical system of the language as a whole.it concerns the determinations of synonymy, there is no existence of the unity among the scholars ' opinions: one researchers come from the generality of the meaning of synonyms, while the others - from the correlation of semantic and subject - logical begin in a word, while the thirds try to prove that synonyms are defined on the base of generality of the structured model of the use and alike combinability of the words.kind of analysis of these determinations happens to in the works of Russian philologists VA Pautynskaya, Review of the literature on question of the synonymy, VA Zvegintsev Semasiology, Questions to theories and histories of the language, Theoretical and applied linguistics and VT Valium About determinations of the synonymy and their synonymy in modern English.
