LINGUSTIC ELEMENTS OF SEMANTIC IN ENGLISH
Abstract
The meaning of the word is not homogenious and can be considered as a structure. One and the same word may have several meanings. Traditionally a word that has more than one meaning is called polysemantic, and the phenomenon polysemy can be defined as plurality of meaning. Polysemy is connected with the phenomenon of the semantic structure of the word and those of the lexico-semantic variant and the seme.
Key words: Semantic, companion, elements, characterized, peripheric, polysemantic, correlates, monotounous, Lingustic, person.
