About this document

Paradigmatic Meaning in Lexical Semantics by Phương Linh Đào is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Chapter 5 discusses contrastive lexical semantics, focusing on dimensions of meaning such as denotative, connotative, and social meanings, as well as the motivation of words through phonetic, graphemic, morphological, and semantic factors. It also explores sense relationships including syntagmatic and paradigmatic relations, along with phenomena like polysemy, homonymy, metaphor, and metonymy. The chapter provides examples in both English and Vietnamese to illustrate these concepts.
