What is "lexical ambiguity"?

Lexical ambiguity occurs when a word has multiple meanings or interpretations, leading to confusion or uncertainty in understanding. This type of ambiguity arises because a single word can represent different concepts or ideas depending on the context in which it is used. For example, the word "bank" can refer to a financial institution or the side of a river. Lexical ambiguity is a common feature in language and can create humorous or misleading situations in communication. Clarifying context or using additional words can often help resolve ambiguity, making it easier for listeners or readers to grasp the intended meaning.
