1.
Semantics is a subfield of
linguistics that is traditionally defined as the study of
meaning. One area of study is the meaning of
compounds, another is the study of relations between different linguistic expression (antonymy
?, hyperonymy
?, hyponymy
?, synonymy
?). Another field is how the meaning of a word changed over time (see
etymology).
2. Semantics is also used as a term in mathematics and computer science. See [denotational semantics]?.
