    Ambiguity → Polysemy

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Polysemy can give rise to ambiguity when context leaves more than one related sense available. Ambiguity is the openness to multiple readings. Polysemy is one possible lexical source of it.

    Equivocation → Polysemy

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    An argument can shift unnoticed between related senses of a polysemous expression. Equivocation concerns what the argument infers across that shift, distinct from the expression’s range of senses.

    Extension of meaning → Polysemy

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Broadening expands the range of uses of an expression over time. Polysemy describes the related senses it has at a given point. The distinction is between change over time and the range of senses at one stage.

    Homonymy → Polysemy

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Homonymy and polysemy both involve a form with more than one meaning. The distinction depends on whether the meanings are analysed as unrelated or related. Shared spelling alone leaves that question open.
    Evidence basis

    Polysemy → Homonymy

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Polysemy treats the senses of one form as related. Homonymy treats them as lexically distinct. The criterion for relatedness matters, and historical evidence and present-day usage may support different analyses.

    Polysemy → Metaphor

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Metaphorical transfer can give an expression a related use. Polysemy concerns an established set of related senses. An isolated metaphor alone cannot establish a new sense.

    Polysemy → Shift in meaning

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Polysemy can arise through semantic change when older and newer senses coexist. Such a history requires evidence beyond the existence of several senses today.
