What about the treatment of polysemous word in the dictionary? Polysemy
- a multiple but related meanings for a single form - poses a problem in
semantic theory and the semantic applications such as lexicography and
natural language processing system. It seem that in lexicographic
practice there is no objective criteria for the analysis and the
treatment of this polysemous word. Anyone out there to share a comment
on this matter?
