Theoretical Foundations of Studying the Phenomenon of Polysemy
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Words in a language can be mono- and polysemantic, i.e. mono- and polysemic. Monosemy is a linguistic phenomenon in which a word has only one meaning. Polysemy is the presence of different lexical meanings for the same word depending on different contexts. Separate lexical meanings of a word are called lexical-semantic variants. A word always appears with one meaning, which is called primary. The primary meaning is direct; it directly names the designated object. The polysemy of a word develops on the basis of the transfer of the name from one object to another.
