The article deals with relationships between total synonyms in various registers pertaining to the Slovene language. The relationships between expressions and their referents, as well as those between the expressions themselves differ depending on the register. The system of the Slovene standard language is rich in registers. Thus it is difficult to speak of »total synonyms«. Even in the cases where two expressions in a certain register are invariants content-wise, »total synonymy« is
hindered by the norms pertaining to a particular type of discourse.
