Semantics: A Coursebook is an introductory course on semantics, designed with a practical approach. It includes explanations, examples, and exercises to help learners gradually grasp the concepts of meaning in language. The book comprises 27 units, focusing on six main content groups: fundamental semantic concepts; referential relations and meaning; attributes and semantic relations; logic; word meaning; and interpersonal and non-literal meaning. Content covers sentences, utterances and propositions, referential expressions, predicates, deixis and definiteness, extension and infinitives, semantic relations, logical propositions, dictionaries, meaning postulates, semantic roles, speech acts, conversational implications, idioms, metaphors, and metonymy. The book combines theory with practical exercises and learning guidance, making it suitable for linguistics students and semantics learners at the introductory and intermediate levels.
