Abstract:

Knowing a language means to know how to produce and understand sentences with particular meanings. Semantics is the study of how languages organize and express meanings. It is the branch of linguistics that deals with the meaning of words, phrases and sentences. Semantics is concerned with objective or general meaning and avoids trying to account for subjective or local meaning. This paper tries to critically evaluate what the semantics is; what are its major types; what it studies; what are its related fields; how semantic features analyze the meaning of meanings; How semantic roles classify

Abstract:

The article presents the results of the study of the semantic structure of the polysemantic word in the aspect of cognitive semantics. The study is based on the position of cognitive lexicology that "the semantics of a word is not limited only to a meaning; it is wider than the meaning". Therefore, the meaning of a word can be studied in the aspect of cognitive semantics. The cognitive-semantic aspect of studying the meanings of a polysemantic word implies its multilevel analysis, so the semantic structure of a polysemic word is studied not only from the outside, surface semantics but also fro

Abstract:

Abstract This paper examines the relevance of three semantic models for translation. Structural semantics, more specifically semantic feature analysis, has given rise to the maxim that we should translate "bundles of semantic features". Prototype semantics suggests that word-meanings have cores and fuzzy edges which are influenced by culture. For translation this means that we do not necessarily translate bundles of features but have to decide whether to focus on the core or the fuzzy edges of the meaning of a particular word. Scenesand-frames semantics suggests that word meaning is influenced

Abstract:

Languages combine form and meaning in order to express an infinite number of ideas. Modern linguistics has developed sophisticated methods to probe the formal structure of languages from phonetics to syntax, but the study of meaning remains relatively unexplored. The lack of sophisticated methods to document the semantic structure of languages remains a significant problem for work with endangered languages. Research in semantics is limited by semantic theories that can be traced back to Plato and Aristotle. These theories assume that languages use a universal set of semantic elements to const

Abstract:

Semantics plays an important role in linguistics, especially in terms of meaning or in other words, semantics is a branch of linguistics that studies the meaning of words. Semantic analysis refers to the user's language and culture. Even the same word can have different meanings or nuances of meaning when used. This difference in the meaning of words often causes differences and misunderstandings. In Indonesian there are words that are the same as the Gorontalo Regional Language. However, of course every word from the two languages has different meanings when viewed from a semantic perspective

Current research on the syntax-semantics interface demonstrates the dramatic extent to which syntactic structures constitute transparent reflections of well-defined semantic regularities.

The Russian linguistic tradition describes such collocations as verbal periphrasis, and this leads to a misjudgment of their semantical particularity. Our main goal is to describe the differences due to state semantical independence of the collocations from the verbs. The study showed that an emotional state described by descriptive predicates with verbs ispytyvat’ / ispytat’ presupposes no explication

The grammar of a language is the system of rules and semantic is the study of meaning. Rules specified by grammar help create various sentences, while semantics helps in interpreting their meanings. These fields' interrelation raises important questions about how structure affects meaning and vice versa, and emptiness' meaning. The paper which discusses major theories and also debates deals with the relationship of grammar and semantics. An important area of research is compositional semantics which holds that a sentence‘s meaning comes from both the meaning of the parts and their arrang

The paper investigates the concept of salience as applied to lexical semantics. More precisely, it looks at whether one can speak of salience in the semantic features of a given meaning. A pilot study is conducted, in which the different meanings of a polysemous phrasal verb, take off, are described in terms of semantic features. Those features are then compared to each other so as to find out if some can be said to be more salient than others. They are given gradients of salience, making it possible to represent graphically this salience in each meaning. Tentative conclusions are then drawn.

Abstract:

This article deals with the problem of the semantics of proper names. It is stated that onyms, in addition to lexicographic meanings recorded in toponymic dictionaries, also have psycholinguistic meanings. Lexicographic meanings are traditionally described in dictionaries in accordance with the principle of reductionism, which involves minimizing the features included in the meaning with a limited volume of the dictionary entry. Numerous experiments have allowed us to discover a new kind of meaning, which we call psycholinguistic. Psycholinguistic meaning is a meaning that is actually represen

Abstract:

Semantics is one of three levels of language analysis: phonological, grammatical, and semantic. Semantics is a field of linguistics that studies the relationship between linguistic signs and the objects they signify, or in other words, a field of linguistic study that investigates what language means and means. Semantics is a field of linguistics that is closely related to other social sciences, such as sociology or anthropology, and even to philosophy and psychology. Sociology is related to semantics due to the fact that the identity of social groups can be demonstrated by the use of certain

Abstract:

   The primary meaning of the Danish verb prøve is “to use one’s best ability to do a certain activity or to reach something; make an attempt”; nevertheless, it is also used about activities that do not require one’s best ability. In these cases, it can be argued, the verb has been grammaticalized. The first aim of this paper is to describe the relationship between the literal and the grammaticalized meanings of the verb using NSM (natural semantic metalanguage), based on corpus examples and speaker judgements. Data have shown that the grammaticalized meaning of prøve is redu

Abstract:

Abstract While morphemes are theoretically defined as linguistic units linking form and meaning, semantic effects in morphological processing are not reported consistently in the literature on derived and compound words. The lack of consistency in this line of research has often been attributed to methodological differences between studies or contextual effects. In this paper, we advance a different proposal where semantic effects emerge quite consistently if semantics is defined in a dynamic and flexible way, relying on distributional semantics approaches. In this light, we revisit morphologi

In contrast, Izutsu emphasized the principle that the meanings of words change in relation to individuals’ changing worl

The formation of the semantics of coercion can be carried out not only on the basis of semantic transference, but also in structurally derived verbs with the help of prefixed morphemes (при-, под-, у-), in which there is also a rethinking of the original spatial meanings of being near or under someth

Abstract:

The paper highlights the development of mental semantics in polysemic words in Igor Severyanin`s poetry. The vocabulary of the mental sphere is studied by Russian and foreign scientists, specialists in the field of semantics and related disciplines, since it is through its use that the worldview of nations and their representatives, native speakers, is reflected in language. Frequent use of a word’s figurative mental meaning in language makes such a lexico-semantic variant (LSV) commonplace, and leads to the fixation of this new seme in the explanatory dictionary.

It’s not very assertive to state that meaning is the core of language. Humanbeing has been within the transfer since its existence. The fact we say “ language” and linguistic communacation are the transfer of meaning from one mind to the other. Meaning occurs between the speaker/listener and the writer/ reader. The language whic relates between these binary provider the transfer of meaning with itself. Semantics tries to describe what the meaning is and what it depends of during this transfer process.

While previous studies of there have been qualitative or relied on interpreting relative frequencies directly, the present study combines multivariate statistical techniques with linguistic theory through distributional semantics. It is argued that existential uses of there in earlier stages of English were not semantically empty, and that the original meaning was primarily deictic rather than locative.

Our approach is to show how a high-level semantics for interrupts can be justified with respect to a low-level implementation, by means of a compiler and its correctness theorem. In this manner we obtain two different perspectives on the problem, formally shown to be equivalent, which gives greater confidence in the correctness of our sem

Abstract. According to the instance-based approach, each novel word encounter is encoded as an episodic trace, including different aspects of word knowledge (orthography, semantics, phonology) and context. Experiencing the novel word again leads to reactivating the previous instances to support word identification. Accordingly, once a link between orthography and meaning is established through several instances of co-occurrence, presenting the novel word form enhances semantic learning even if the contexts are uninformative about the meaning ( Eskenazi et al., 2018 ).

This paper examines the syntagmemic structure of verbs and their correlations with their logical-semantic quality drawing on the methods of componential analysis and morphothemic analysis proposed by A.I.

The former approach helps us to single out the word standard semes, which are fixed in a language, whereas the latter is particularly useful in studying the nature of word semantics, its structure, and correlation with the concept and category of thought. Our research suggests that the method of morphothemic analysis provides a complex, multifaceted, in-depth analysis of the semantic

Abstract:

This article explores the semantics of spirits and monsters with reference to the Brazilian spirit-incorporation religion of Umbanda (and secondarily to the monster studies literature). Semantics is the study of meaning. The most common, and common-sense, view of meaning roots it in reference, in representation, in signification, in how words match up with things. This article argues that an alternative semantic theory – seeing meaning in interpretation rather than representation – has greater value for making sense of spirits, monsters and gods.
