semantics a coursebook answer key
This practical coursebook introduces all the basics of semantics in a simple, step-by- step fashion. Each unit includes short sections of explanation with examples, followed by stimulating practice exercises to complete the book. Feedback and comment
sections follow each exercise to enable students to monitor their progress. No previous background in semantics is assumed, as students begin by discovering the value and fascination of the subject and then move through all key topics in the field, including
sense and reference, simple logic, word meaning, and interpersonal meaning. New study guides and exercises have been added to the end of each unit (with online answer key) to help reinforce and test learning. A completely new unit on non-literal language and metaphor, plus updates throughout the text, significantly expand the scope of the original edition to bring it up-to-date with the modern teaching of semantics for introductory courses in linguistics as well as intermediate students.

Is it possible to list a set of necessary and sufficient conditions to fully and
adequately characterize the lexical item mother? Try to come up with a couple
of such sets of conditions and then explain why they are insufficient. (Hint:
think of all the current terms which contain the word mother, including birth
mother, surrogate mother, stepmother, biological mother, adoptive mother,
natural mother, foster mother, unwed mother, genetic mother, etc.)
