DM>> A.K.A. is an abbreviation
AH> According to my North American dictionaries it may be

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.... :-)
