 DM>>  A.K.A. is an abbreviation
 AH>           According to my North American dictionaries it may be
 AH> spelled a.k.a., aka, or AKA... but we don't use periods if the letters
 AH> are capitalized.
 DM>>  for All Known As.
 AH>           Careful!  The substitution of "all" for "also" changes the
 AH> meaning.
Is is synonyms?

 DM>>  But what is "strainer" and "sieve" (synonymous
 DM>>  of what?..) ?
 AH>           In this example I'm referring to a container which has holes
 AH> in it... the sort of thing you might use for rinsing fresh berries
 AH> with water before you eat them.  When my usual resources define
 AH> "strainer" as "sieve" and vice versa, I'd say they regard these two
 AH> words as synonyms (n.)... or as synonymous (adj.) *with each other*.
 AH> Synonyms are words which have +/- the same meaning....  :-)
