    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.

    Ambiguity → Homonymy

    Meaning of the relation type
    Beide Begriffe gehören demselben fachlichen Kontinent an. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Homonymy can make different readings available for the same form. An utterance is ambiguous when its context leaves more than one of those readings open.

    Ambiguity → Equivocation

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Equivocation shifts between senses of an expression in an argument. Ambiguity makes that shift possible. On its own, it implies neither deception nor faulty reasoning.

    Ambiguity → Irony

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Irony can bring several levels of interpretation into play at once. Ambiguity helps describe the range of readings. Whether an utterance is ironic depends on further evidence from context.

    Equivocation → Ambiguity

    Meaning of the relation type
    Ein Atlasprofil grenzt den Zielbegriff ausdrücklich ab. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Ambiguity leaves more than one interpretation open. Equivocation shifts the meaning of a term within an argument while treating it as constant. The error lies in the inference drawn across that shift.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Ambiguity can make a mondegreen possible. Ambiguity is the availability of more than one interpretation, while a mondegreen is a particular outcome of mishearing.
