Semantics

Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -People with semantic processing difficulties have particular trouble with abstract words like ‘curious’ or ‘vague’, words that relate to feelings and emotions such as ‘embarrassed’ and ‘anxious’, and words that refer to status (for instance ‘expert’ or ‘authority’) or degree (for example, ‘essential’ or ‘approximate’).

Detailed explanation-2: -For example, in everyday use, a child might make use of semantics to understand a mom’s directive to “do your chores” as, “do your chores whenever you feel like it.” However, the mother was probably saying, “do your chores right now.”

Detailed explanation-3: -Semantics is the study of meaning in language. It can be applied to entire texts or to single words. For example, “destination” and “last stop” technically mean the same thing, but students of semantics analyze their subtle shades of meaning.

Detailed explanation-4: -The result of this research confirmed that there are seven types of meaning based on Leech’s theory, namely conceptual, connotative, collocative, reflective, affective, social, and thematic.
