semon Linguistics.|ˈsiːmɒn| [Irreg. f. Gr. σῆµα: cf. -on1.] In stratificational grammar: an element of meaning or one which combines with others to make up a sememe.
1965S. M. Lamb in Amer. Anthropol. LXVII. ii. 46 Turning now to semology, the elementary unit is the semon, and a sememe is a unit composed of one or more semons. In a clause such as he found his brace and bit all the sememes are simple, but the following expressions contain or are complex sememes, i.e. sememes composed of multiple semons: she put all her eggs in one basket.., don't give up the ship. 1968Language XLIV. 576 Hockett divides the ‘semons’ (the labels on the nodes in the sememic networks) into three classes, called ‘links’, ‘kernels’, and ‘modifiers’. 1973Archivum Linguisticum IV. 119 Within his general model the speaker makes a selection of ‘semons’ (elementary semantic features) on the basis of his ‘awareness of a ‘cognitive experience’’. |
