Is Powershell the same as terminal on a mac machine?

I used terminal on the ubuntu os and now I saw powershell on Windows 7. Before going into powershell I want to know if powershell is the same as the terminal on ubuntu and mac, or do I have to learn more and new syntax?

There are some aliases (such as ls) in powershell that are there to make it a little easier for someone coming from a *nix background, but in reality you will have to learn a whole new set of syntax and commands.

It's a very similar concept, but they're completely different environments with regard to syntax, style & workflow.
