a.      Title
“Frame semantics a brief introduction”
By Diego Gavagna Aarhus University 2013 

b.     Purpose :
to give a comprehensive explanation on how meanings are structured and associated to words in a semantic structure and how these provide access to our conceptual system, the inventory of structured knowledge that we use to navigate the world.

c.      Content :
This view gives account for relations between words that cannot just be ascribed to structural semantic relations like hyponymy, synonymy orantonymy. Instead, it describes the interdependencies between words based on background knowledge that humans acquire through experience and store in long-term memory.

d.     Result :
The frame is a knowledge system that provides a range of licensed relationships among the attributesdescribing the event-sequence potential of the frame. The human can identify the meaning of the words by they experience or activity in long time memory. Semantic is something that has complicated meaning. The overbalance from tihis journal is the searcher explain with the her experince and give us knowledge about semantic with detail,and the weakness of this journal is the writer not write the problem formulation and hyphotheses.

 “Modern Linguistics Semantics”
by Kate Kearns,Senior Lecturer, Department of Linguistics, University of Canterbury New Zealand
This journal uploaded by Pooja Saikia from Academia.edu

b.     Purpose :
To understand with Semantic in Linguistics that deals with the literal meaning of words and the meaning of the way they are combined, which taken together form the core of meaning,  or the starting point from which the whole meaning of a particular utterance is constructed.

c.      Content :
KINDS OF MEANING
Denotation and Sense
      There are two most basic ways of giving the meaning of words or longer expressions.The first and most simple way is to present examples of what the word or longer expressions.The first and most simple way is to present examples of what the word denotes.For example, the word cow can be defined by pointing to a cow and saying ‘That is a cow’,or the word blue can be defined by pointing to a blue object and saying ‘That colour is blue.’

Lexical and Structural Meaning
The meaning of a complex expression such as a sentence is composed of  lexical meaning, which is the meaning of the individual words, and structural meaning which is the meaning of  the way the words are combined. Structural meaning mainly comprises the meaning derived from the syntactic structure of an expression.

d.     Result or Conclusion
This journal has been explain about semantic well like explain about meaning of semantics,kind of semantics,lexical and structural maning and etc.perhaps there are little bit weakness.it hope the reader can more understand about semantics with well.

a.      Title :
“Semantics and Theories of Semantics”
Compiled by Abbas Bukhari and uploaded by Zain Ez+1
 at academia.edu.
b.     Purpose :
To know more about about semantics, one of the branches of pure linguistics that is studying meaning in language.
c.      Content :
This journal tells us the difficulties in the study of meaning. There are grammatical meaning and lexical meaning that we need to know. Not only that, we can know other aspects of meaning of a word by read this journal. It helps us to know more about terms that is in semantics. For example hyponymy, synonymy, antonymy, polysemy, homonymy, and collocation.

d.     Result /Conclusion :
Linguistic Relativity - Part of the difficulty in connecting language to the outside world can arise from the fact that the way we view the world at some level depends on the language we use. Because we categorize the object from our experience with the help of language, it may take a case that learning about the world and learning about language is an activity that can not be separated and therefore our world is partially determined by our language.
And Semantic have more terms and kind of it for example, hyponymy, synonymy, antonymy, polysemy, homonymy, and collocation. With all type of it have the branches too.

“Semantic Field, Semantic Relation and Semantic Components”
By Benedict Orji Ukpabi

b.     Purpose :
      To understand about semantic field, semantic relation and semantic components. It characterised the semantic field of ‘motor vehicles’ in terms of semantic component and discussed the advantages and disadvantages in the use of field relations and components to describe the meaning of words. By using methodolody of Library study.
c.      Content :

Semantic Field
Semantic field is a set of words or lexemes related in meaning; also called lexical field, field, or field of meaning.Most often, fields are defined by subject matter, such as body parts, landforms, diseases, colours, foods, or kindship relations.
There are lexical groups or components that made up semantic field :
- Meronymy
- Sememe

Semantic Relations
Semantic relations or meaning relations are words that are semantically related to other words.
There are lexical groups or components that made up semantic relation :
1.      Synonym
2.      Antonyms
3.      Polysemy
4.      Antagonymy
5.      Homonymy
6.      Hyponymy/hypernymy

d.     Result :
Advantages
·         In terms of a small set of semantic features one can show the similarities and differences between the senses of lexical items.
·          Field relations and componential analysis can account for selectional restrictions imposed upon the occurrence of lexemes more explicitly
·         Field relations and components provide a wide spectrum of meaning of a lexeme thereby providing the linguistic contextual opportunity for hedging in communication.
Disadvantage(s)
Field relations and semantic components of lexical items create room for ambiguity of meaning. Finding a specific meaning of a lexeme becomes difficult except on pragmatic ground where context of usage could help to deduce the meaning of a lexeme. For example, the lexeme ‘van’, how can we know what the speaker refers to; a pickup van, a caravan, wagon, army wing, or camper? Therefore meaning of a lexical item is inconsistent and might be misleading.
