    Zwei Begriffe bilden eine redaktionell bestätigte produktive Spannung. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Hyponymy places a subtype within a broader category. Meronymy relates a part to a whole. The comparison separates classification from composition.

    Meronymy → Synecdoche

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Meronymy describes a lexical relation between a part and a whole. Synecdoche can use such a relation in context, as when ‘hands’ refers to workers. The figure concerns what the expression designates on that occasion.
    Evidence basis
    Importierter Querverweis über Fachgrenzen (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Recorded review status
    ATLAS_109 klassifiziert (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)

    Zwei Begriffe bilden eine redaktionell bestätigte produktive Spannung. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Meronymy describes a part–whole relation. Hyponymy relates a subtype to its broader category. Membership in a class differs from forming part of a whole.
    Evidence basis
    ATLAS_094: bestätigte Spannungsachse (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Meronymy describes a part–whole relation. Synecdoche can make use of such a relation in naming. The comparison connects a semantic relation with one of its rhetorical uses.
