semantics

plural noun sɪˈmantɪkssəˈmæn(t)ɪks

1usually treated as singular The branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning. The two main areas are logical semantics, concerned with matters such as sense and reference and presupposition and implication, and lexical semantics, concerned with the analysis of word meanings and relations between them.

Example sentencesExamples

- At that moment, no amount of language twists or Libertarian semantics will be able to trick God.
- It's enough to make anybody believe in the feasibility of linguistic semantics, at least for a while.
- The real communication problems arise surely from divergent vocabulary and semantics.
- From logic we have model-theoretic semantics, and from that possible-worlds analyses of modal and epistemic discourse.
- Had I stumbled on a right-wing plot to subvert the semantics of English collective nouns?
- Most procedural programming languages follow natural semantics of control flow and hence are easy to understand.
- Frame semantics is a linguistic theory which is currently gaining ground.
- I then present three arguments that this dynamic approach is more faithful to natural language semantics than static Montagovian theories.
- But this interpretation is outlawed by the semantics of referential dependence associated with reflexives.
- Internalist semantics could really have saved a lot of trouble here.
- She combines the methods of history, semantics, and semiotics to show how and why the formulae were first adopted in organic chemistry.
- The issue here is not one of political semantics but of analysis and prescription.
- So, the logic is justified by a semantics; the semantics is justified by a meaning-theory.
- The approach combines a constrained-based semantics with a general mechanism of conversational implicature.
- It is significant that many linguists have sought to limit the role of polysemy in linguistic semantics, if not to eliminate it altogether.
- That is, the structure, semantics, composition and constructs of Maori language itself.
- Supposedly, there's never been a form of semantics, a language, that has existed that long.
- A change in language, in the fundamentals, in the semantics, the grammar, the very essence of the language.
- We must attend to social and cultural history in order to make sense of semantics.

  Example sentencesExamples
  Again, this kind of statement is born out of faulty semantics.
  The point is that the semantics we use are not tick box mechanisms.

  To me, the sound of a poem is at least as important as the semantics; so is the visual.
  And if we all were to do that, we would realize that we don't need to fight over formalities and semantics.

  How about this - once Tariana starts addressing the real problems within her portfolios, we can discuss the semantics.
  It's not a matter of semantics this time, as were my arguments with people over what to call the sniper.
  We all try for the same goal, in the end, though we call it by different names and kill each other over the semantics.

semantician

noun -ˈtɪʃ(ə)n

A semantician would want to why both sentences are possible in the first case but not the second.
Example sentencesExamples
- This would account for his action in jetting to Australia and proposing marriage to Doctor Winifred Coburn, a horse-faced spinster semantician nine years his senior.

semanticist

noun sɪˈmantɪsɪstsəˈmæn(t)əsəst

Because we, what with our anal-retentive, horn-rimmed parsing of phrases and slicing of sentences, are really semanticists when it boils down to it.
Example sentencesExamples
- A few years ago, I asked Dave if he'd ever noticed that semanticists tend to wear leather - pants, vests and even hats as well as the more conventional coats and jackets.
- For example, I recall once rambling on for a bit about semanticians, until a friend gently inquired whether I might be talking about semanticists.
- The goal of articulating a logical framework tailored to a representational system that is motivated by systematic evidence about meanings in natural languages is not acknowledged by all linguistic semanticists.
- I suppose that lawyers and semanticists learn how to come to clear conclusions about these things - I'm glad I'm just a simple phonetician.
