The use of synonyms and variants are analyzed in the Poem of Fernán González from their contexts and according to the literary resources employed by the author and to the linguistic norm prevalent in the Spanish of the 13th century. Both uses are examined with couples of voices through their chronology and frequency in the text, their position within the verses to maintain the rhyme and the metric, and their meanings in the contexts they usually occur. The presence of non-concordant syntax in verbal phrases governed by haber is claimed to be a way of expression of the new-born Spanish and as an outcome of the use of the canons of the verses with four alexandrines.
