In this paper it is reconsidered the physical meaning of Einstein's Relative Simultaneity, based on the results obtained previously in the context of the meaning of simultaneity and synchronization that has also been addressed in several other papers. In the standard Special Relativity, usually, simultaneity and synchronization is considered with the Einstein one-way speed of light that has been introduced by Einstein in the 1905 article "by definition". In the standard interpretation the one-way speed of light is not considered since the Einstein speed of light is considered the speed of light. However, in our previous work we have shown that this is a terminological confusion. Now it is addressed Einstein´s Relative Simultaneity with a very simple conciseformalism using two clocks in every point of a frame, frame that is moving in relation to the preferred frame, a synchronized clock, and a Lorentzian clock. We previously obtain an expression that shows an intrinsic desynchronization of Lorentzian clocks in every frame except in the preferred frame where the one-way speed of light is isotropic. Therefore, we designate the preferred frame by Einstein Frame (EF). Allegedly the conventionality of the one-way speed of light originate the conventionality of simultaneity. Therefore, we clarify the meaning of simultaneity and Einstein´s Relative Simultaneity concluding that Einstein´s Relative Simultaneity is not simultaneity except in EF. Simultaneity is not relative. However, we conclude that Einstein´s Simultaneity is relative since Lorentzian clocks are desynchronized except in EF.
