| dc.description.abstract | This is a synchronic study of Kiswahili homonyms, synonyms and antonyms. Diachronic consideration will be utilized as a practical short-cut. The study is basically lexical; it is a deliberate attempt to acquaint the researcher with Kiswahili lexemes and their semantic interrelationship to prepare him for lexicographical work. Syntactical aspects are not within the scope of this study. They are utilized where it is unavoidable. The study, adopting a critical stance attempts to examine some of the theoretical formulations in the light of Kiswahili data. It does not pretend to explore every detail about the issues under discussion; what it certainly does is to reveal various relationships and processes as far as lexical homonymy, synomymy and antonymy are concerned. It also tries to provide some approaches to the study of these concepts in Kiswahili. Indeed it is important to be clear of these issues as they are among central ones in lexicography | en_US |
