Full synonyms are synonyms that have the same meaning, regardless of the context in which they are used. They are words that can be replaced by others without taking into account the rest of the statement or context. For example: dance/dance, newspaper/newspaper.
Full synonyms are generally used to avoid repetitions within a sentence. For example: I always liked dancing so I enrolled in a dance school .
Partial synonyms , on the other hand, are those that share meaning but only in certain contexts. For example: cure/priest ( cure can also be the solution to the disease and, in that context, it will not be synonymous with the word priest ).
