CYPHER, J.

A jury convicted the defendant, Terrence E. Johnston, of rape (G.L. c. 265, § 22[ b], as in effect prior to St. 2002, c. 35, § 1), and assault and battery (G.L. c. 265, § 13A). The defendant claims that the judge erred in denying his motion to suppress statements. The defendant also requests that we vacate his conviction of assault and battery as duplicative of the rape conviction.

1. Factual background. A jury could have found the following facts. During the evening of June 12, 1999, the defendant's wife, Margaret, was napping. She was awakened by the defendant placing his hand on her leg. Margaret asked the defendant what he was doing. He replied that either she would cooperate with him or he would do it forcefully.

According to Margaret, the defendant wrapped his legs around hers, despite her telling him that she had no intention of having sex with him. The defendant said, "You either do it willingly or forcefully," and "I'm going to get something out of this marriage." Margaret tried to resist, but the defendant became more forceful. He tightened his grip on her legs and pulled her hair. The defendant pulled down Margaret's underpants and penetrated her from behind, despite her repeated pleas of "No, no, no." The defendant ejaculated, let go of her, dressed, and went into the kitchen. Margaret felt "shock[ed]" and "stunn[ed]."

Margaret's daughter, Joyce, arrived home at approximately 10:00 or 10:30 P.M. Upon her arrival, she heard the defendant yelling from inside the bedroom. Through the door, Joyce asked to speak with Margaret privately. Margaret came out of the bedroom, and Joyce observed that she appeared to be shocked and "had a dazed look on her face, as if something traumatic had [happened] to her." When Joyce asked her what was wrong, Margaret said that the defendant had raped her. The defendant pushed Margaret back into the bedroom and closed the door. Joyce left the house and called the police from her cell phone. Back inside the bedroom, the defendant told Margaret, "I know what I did was wrong, but I'm not going to put up with your crap anymore. It's going to be my way or I'm throwing you out."

The police arrived and spoke with Margaret on Joyce's cell phone. They asked that she and the defendant come outside and speak with them. Officer Bryan Bates observed that Margaret appeared very pale and that she was sobbing. Margaret told Officer Bates that her husband had raped her.

Officer Bates placed the defendant under arrest, read him his Miranda warnings, and placed him in the cruiser. Officer Bates detected a strong odor of alcohol on the defendant's breath and noticed that his speech was slurred.

Margaret was taken to the hospital for medical evaluation. Medical personnel observed that she was "anxious" and that there was abnormal bruising along her lower extremities. Following the evaluation, Officer Bates met with Margaret again. He observed that, five hours after the alleged incident, she was still very upset and emotional.

On June 14, Monday morning, Officer Bates interviewed the defendant after the defendant signed the department's Miranda waiver form. At trial, Officer Bates read the defendant's handwritten statement to the jury:

"I, [Terrence E. Johnston,] to the best of my knowledge and recollection, did not rape my wife. I do remember being a bit rough and her saying that it hurt. I did hold her by the hair from behind and let go and held her by the shoulders when she said to. I do strongly feel that she is getting even with me for threatening to kick her out because of her broken promises and lies."

Officer Bates also testified that the defendant had told him that he had been rough when having sex with Margaret and that she had said that it hurt, but denied that he forced her to have sexual relations. The defendant admitted to Officer Bates that Margaret had said "no" or "stop," but stated that she could not refuse to have sex with him under religious laws.

2. The Miranda warnings. The defendant argues that the Miranda waiver on the form he signed at the police station was constitutionally defective because the warning did not convey to the defendant that he had the right to the presence of an attorney during questioning. As summarized in Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 479 (1966), before being questioned a suspect must be warned:

"[1] that he has the right to remain silent, [2] that anything he says can be used against him in a court of law, [3] that he has the right to the presence of an attorney, and [4] that if he cannot afford an attorney one will be appointed for him prior to any questioning if he so desires."

The relevant part of the form signed by the defendant read as follows:

"Miranda warnings

"You have the right to remain silent — do you understand this right?

"Anything you say can be used against you at trial — do you understand this right?

"You have the right to an attorney — do you understand this right?

"If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be appointed to you by the Commonwealth at no expense and prior to any questioning — do you understand this right?"

The form then conveyed the right to a prompt presentment and concluded with two "waiver" provisions, one regarding Miranda rights and one regarding presentment rights. The part regarding the waiver of Miranda rights read as follows:

"Having these rights in mind, do you now waive your Fifth Amendment Rights pursuant to Miranda and desire to talk to me now concerning this or other matters of concern to us?"

The defendant indicated that he wished to speak with the police and he signed the waiver.

The Miranda warning on the form could have more clearly conveyed that the defendant had the right to an attorney's presence during questioning. We do not decide whether the form was constitutionally defective, however, because that issue is not properly before us.

The defendant argues that the issue was adequately preserved either (1) because his claim in his motion to suppress that he had not been advised of his Miranda rights prior to being questioned comprehends a claim that he was not adequately advised of those rights, and the judge's ruling that "the defendant was appropriately advised of his Miranda rights" means that the judge expressly considered and decided that claim; or (2) because we did not require such specificity in Commonwealth v. Ayala, 29 Mass. App. Ct. 592, 598 n. 8 (1990), a case with a similar defect in the Miranda warnings but which was decided under Mass.R.Crim.P. 22, 378 Mass. 892 (1979), governing objections, rather than under Mass.R.Crim.P. 13, 378 Mass. 871 (1979), governing motions to suppress.

Rule 13(a)(2) of the Massachusetts Rules of Criminal Procedure requires that a defendant state the grounds on which the motion is based "with particularity." The rule provides that "[g]rounds not stated which reasonably could have been known at the time a motion is filed shall be deemed to have been waived." The purpose of the requirement that all grounds be alleged with particularity is (1) to "indicate to the judge whether the party can meet [the] 'initial burden of establishing the facts necessary to support his motion'"; and (2) to "provide reliable notice to the opposing party of the facts supporting the motion." Commonwealth v. Parker, 412 Mass. 353, 356-357 n. 9 (1992), quoting from Commonwealth v. Santosuosso, 23 Mass. App. Ct. 310, 313 (1986).

There has been no lack of clarity in the numerous decisions interpreting the particularity requirement of rule 13(a)(2). See, e.g., Commonwealth v. Carey, 407 Mass. 528, 537 n. 5 (1990) (juvenile waived his right to raise additional grounds for excluding incriminating statements on appeal because he did not raise them in his motion to suppress); Commonwealth v. Pope, 15 Mass. App. Ct. 505, 506-507 (1983) (trial judge could properly decline to hear issues not properly raised in defendant's motion to suppress); Commonwealth v. Alan A., 47 Mass. App. Ct. 271, 275 (1999) (defendant waived his right to raise issue that his statement was given involuntarily because he did not raise it in his motion); Commonwealth v. Robie, 51 Mass. App. Ct. 494, 499 (2001) (defendant waived his right to raise for the first time on appeal whether police had properly ordered him to exit a vehicle, where he argued below that search was improper because he had not consented to it).

In Commonwealth v. Lodge, 431 Mass. 461, 473-474 n. 12 (2000), the Supreme Judicial Court rejected an argument similar to the defendant's argument. In Lodge, the defendant had stated in his motion to suppress that police had "unlawfully exceeded the bounds of permissible inquiry." Id. at 474 n. 12. The court concluded that, although the defendant arguably could have been alleging that the police had exceeded the scope of the warrant, the defendant had not gone into detail about that issue in his memorandum of law, and on appeal, the defendant presented the court with a new theory that had not been before the trial judge. Ibid.

The defendant argues that Commonwealth v. Ayala, 29 Mass. App. Ct. at 598 n. 8, compels us to conclude that the issue has been properly preserved, as it is "functionally equivalent" to the facts of this case. Ayala concerned the admissibility, over defense counsel's objection at voir dire, of a defendant's statements during a trial in which no motion to suppress had been filed. Id. at 593. As such, we were concerned with Mass.R. Crim.P. 22, which governs objections, rather than rule 13.

In Ayala, we concluded that the defendant's appellate claim that the Miranda warnings he had received were inadequate was sufficiently preserved because defense counsel had argued at voir dire during trial that there was no evidence of waiver and that "under all the circumstances, the Commonwealth has not shown voluntariness beyond a reasonable doubt." Id. at 594. Despite defense counsel's failure to bring this claim to the judge's attention when trial resumed before the jury, we decided that Mass.R.Crim.P. 22 required only that defense counsel make known the action counsel desired the judge to take and that there was no need for her to renew her objection. Id. at 598 n. 8. We also concluded that the attorney's "protest on the ground of voluntariness was broad enough to cover the failure to give all the required Miranda warnings." Ibid.

The defendant urges us to apply Ayala to his case, notwithstanding that his claim was brought through a motion to suppress rather than as a rule 22 objection. The defendant argues that there is essentially no reason to treat rule 13 and rule 22 differently for purposes of determining whether an issue has been waived, as the point of the preservation requirement is the same: to alert the judge to the nature of the perceived problem.

We decline to relieve the defendant of the requirements of rule 13. First, as we set forth above, rule 13 and the case law interpreting that rule are quite clear. Second, case law since Ayala has reaffirmed the requirement that an objection must be sufficient to alert the judge to the grounds for the objection. See Commonwealth v. Rivera, 425 Mass. 633, 636 nn. 1, 2 (1997) (defendant's objection to use of affidavit based on best evidence rule did not preserve alleged constitutional error); Commonwealth v. Lyons, 426 Mass. 466, 473 n. 12 (1998) (defendant's asserted error objected to on different ground than raised on appeal; proper standard of review is substantial likelihood of miscarriage of justice); Commonwealth v. Fowler, 431 Mass. 30, 41 n. 19 (2000) (defendant objected to testimony and to closing argument but not for reasons asserted on appeal). See also Commonwealth v. Woods, 419 Mass. 366, 370-372 (1995) (admissibility of statement should have been challenged with a pretrial motion to suppress; record failed to show that objection encompassed argument asserted on appeal); Commonwealth v. Perryman, 55 Mass. App. Ct. 187, 192-193 (2002).

There is a significant difference between a claim that Miranda warnings were not provided prior to questioning and a claim that a warning was given but was defective in some way. In the first instance, the attention of the judge and of opposing counsel is directed to whether warnings were given at all. In the second instance, attention is directed to the quality and accuracy of the warnings that were given and, perhaps, to the defendant's understanding of the warnings.

As the issue has been framed, we detect no error: the motion judge did not err in denying the defendant's motion to suppress on the grounds that were presented to him. See Commonwealth v. Amirault, 424 Mass. 618, 641 n. 15 (1997) ("a right that must be claimed is not denied if it is not claimed, and the proceeding in which the claim is not made is, in that respect, wholly free from error"). We are not obliged on appeal to address new arguments in support of rule 13 motions to suppress that were not argued before the trial judge. See, e.g., Commonwealth v. Barnes, 399 Mass. 385, 393-394 (1987) (appellate court not obliged to consider grounds argued on appeal but not raised in motion to suppress); Commonwealth v. Ramos, 402 Mass. 209, 211 (1988) (same); Commonwealth v. Carey, 407 Mass. 528, 537 n. 5 (1990) (same). See also Smith, Criminal Practice and Procedure § 1277 (2d ed. 1983 Supp. 2003) ("appellate court is not obliged to address an issue if it was not raised during suppression hearing or at a trial, especially if it requires resolution of a factual question").

This is not to say that the substantive issue presented by the defendant is insignificant. Trial counsel's failure to raise the issue may have constituted ineffective assistance of counsel. We are not, however, prepared to assess the merits of any such claim on this record. See Commonwealth v. Pena, 31 Mass. App. Ct. 201, 207 (1991); Commonwealth v. McCormick, 48 Mass. App. Ct. 106, 107-108 (1999) (claims of ineffective assistance of counsel should be advanced in a motion for new trial).

3. Duplicative charges. The defendant argues that because assault and battery is a lesser included offense of rape, and the acts of which he was convicted are based on the same conduct, his conviction of assault and battery must be reversed. Assault and battery is a lesser included offense of rape. Commonwealth v. Walker, 426 Mass. 301, 303 (1997). A defendant's convictions of both offenses may stand where the acts to support the conviction of rape are separate and distinct from the acts used to support the conviction of assault and battery. See Commonwealth v. Mamay, 407 Mass. 412, 418 (1990). See also Commonwealth v. Page, 42 Mass. App. Ct. 943, 944 (1997).

The defendant relies on dicta in Commonwealth v. Ortiz, 47 Mass. App. Ct. 777, 780 (1999), to support his argument that the additional violence Margaret suffered was so integrated into the sexual offense that it did not constitute a separate offense. Ortiz did not involve a risk of duplicative convictions, but rather a concern that a jury had convicted the defendant for uncharged conduct. In Ortiz, we stated that the punching and gagging of the complainant and the dragging her by the hair, in the course of an oral rape, were integrated in the sexual episode and were not separate offenses, and therefore, the defendant's conviction of the lesser included offense of assault and battery was not based on uncharged conduct. Ibid. Here, there is no risk that the defendant was convicted of uncharged conduct.

We also think that there is no risk that the defendant was convicted of a greater offense and lesser offense based on the same conduct. We conclude that the defendant's actions in committing the assault and battery, in particular by pulling her hair, were factually distinct from his actions in raping her. More specifically, when the defendant pulled her hair, he committed an assault and battery. When he penetrated her against her will, he committed rape. See Commonwealth v. Morin, 52 Mass. App. Ct. 780, 787 (2001) (when defendant grabbed complainant's arm and wrist to restrain her, he assaulted and battered her; when he touched her breasts, he committed an indecent assault and battery). The two acts were not so closely related as to constitute a single course of conduct. The convictions were not duplicative.

Judgments affirmed.
