In this essay, we continue explaining more crucial semantic concepts such as REFERENCE, REFERENT and SENSE (See Essay No. 6 Important Semantic Expressions)

In this essay, we will discuss the nature of lexical ambiguity and sentence ambiguity. ( See Essay No.8 on Levels of Meaning in semantics. )

We will also explore the ways in which these two types of ambiguity can be resolved. Ambiguity is a phenomenon in which a word or a sentence can have multiple possible interpretations.

The distinction between utterances, sentences, and propositions is vital in semantics (Also, see Essay No. 3 Semantic Roles) because it allows us to talk about different levels of meaning that are involved in language.

In this essay, we’ll show the key differences among three semantic expressions (Also, see Essay No. 2 Lexical Relations) and provide adequate examples that make things clear enough.

In his book: Semantics-The Study of Meaning, Geoffrey Leech breaks down meaning into seven types giving importance to the conceptual meaning. ( Also, see Essay No. 1:Introducing Semantics )

Understanding semantic features is essential for analyzing and describing the meaning and relationships between words in a language. They provide a framework for studying lexical semantics and contribute to a deeper understanding of language and its structures
