BalasHapusWaaw, awesome. We also have learned in the school about synonym and antonyms in bahasa. But, i still don't understand yet about hypnonym and polysemy. Could you explain both of them???
BalasHapusHyponymy is a relation between two words in which the meaning of one of the words includes the meaning of the other word. E.g : Word: Cook, Hyponyms: Roast, boil, fry, grill, bake.
HapusPolisemy is a word that has more than one meaning. E.g:
I caught a fish at the bank
I take my money from the bank.
I got another reference, the title of the book is "introduction to language and linguistic". ). In this case, we say that the word
HapusRoast, boil, fry, grill, bak is a hyponym of the word cook. Conversely, cook is a hypernym of
Roast, boil, fry, grill, bake.

BalasHapusWhat about hymonymy? What the meaning about that and can you give example about that?
BalasHapusHymonymy is the relation between words with identical forms but different meanings that is, the condition of being homonyms. A stock example is the word bank as it appears in "river bank" and "savings bank."
HapusHallo I'm Mawatdah from TBI 6E. I think homonym is a word that has a different meaning but the same pronunciation or spelling. For example, buy vs bye. Buy is a form of verb or verb that is used for all subjects in English while Bye is a form of expression or goodbye that is often used, but in an informal form
HapusTo recall what synonyms and antonyms are, I'd like to review some of them. Some words that have the same meaning as others are called synonyms. For example: quick = fast.
BalasHapusSome word that have meanings which are opposite to one another are called antonyms, and these opposite meanings come in two forms: categorical and continuous.
For example:
small x big (continues)
Fire x water (categorical)
small x big (continues) This is due to the relative nature of these words, means when we meet our friend we see that she is small and 2 months later we meet our same friend we compared in 2 months ago, it might be the case that our friend is big. So, the meanings between big and small are on a continuum relative to the object of discussion.
HapusFire x water (categorical) These are categorical because there is no continuum between them, that is, less fire never means more water and less water never means more fire.
