What is "semasiology"?
Semasiology is the study of meaning in language, focusing on how different words and expressions convey meanings. It examines how meanings are assigned to words and how they can change over time or vary across different contexts. Semasiology looks at the relationship between signs, such as words or phrases, and the concepts they represent. This field helps to understand how language communicates ideas and how various factors, such as culture and usage, influence meaning.
