Semantic field analysis
generic meaning field
Members belong to a larger class
sequence meaning field
Members are arranged in a fixed order
Some sequential sense fields can start over and over again, which are called cyclic sense fields.
relational meaning field
It is generally composed of two members, who are at two ends of a certain relationship, opposing and relying on each other.
Synonym fields and synonyms
synonymous field

synonyms

synonym difference
Differences in rational meaning
importance of meaning

How to identify synonyms
context
Morpheme meaning inferred word meaning
Antonyms push synonyms
The role of synonyms
Can make language expression precise and rigorous
Can make the language style distinctive
Can make sentences lively and full of variety
Can make the tone of expression tactful
Using synonyms together can strengthen the momentum and complete the tone.
Antonyms and antonyms
Antonym
The related semantics of two words with opposite or relative meanings constitute an antonymous meaning field, and the two words are antonyms to each other.
The two words that constitute antonyms must belong to the same meaning category
Antonyms refer to the relationship between words, not words and phrases
Types of antisense fields
complementary antonymy field
Affirming A must negate B, affirming B must negate A; similarly, negating A must affirm B, and negating B must affirm A. A third party other than A and B is not allowed to exist between the two.
Life and death, movement and stillness, presence or absence
polar antisense field
Affirming A negates B, affirming B negates A; however, negating A does not necessarily affirm B and can have other meanings.
Black and white (grey) size (not big, not small)
antonym imbalance
The two words in the antonym field are always paired, but the semantic range and frequency of use between the two words are not equal, which creates an imbalance of antonyms.
The role of antonyms
The relationship between word meaning and context
The role of context in interpreting word meaning
Context is the environment in which a language unit occurs. Generally divided into language context and situational context (also called social reality context)
The impact of context on word meaning
Context simplifies word meaning
concretize
context adds temporary meaning
Context exhibits selectivity in word meanings
