Sememe

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Sememe 

a term formed by analogy to the terms “phoneme” and “morpheme” and designating a unit of the content plane that represents the sum of the components of the contents of the morpheme (the minimal unit of the expression plane). According to the nature of the meaning expressed in the morpheme, the generalized concept of the sememe is sometimes broken down into two concepts: the lexeme and the grammeme. The lexeme and the grammeme represent the sum of lexical and grammatical meanings, respectively. In another interpretation, the sememe is regarded as a paradigmatic unit having a corresponding seme in a syntagmatic series.
