- Archisememe — A complex semantic unit constituted by the union or intersection of all common semes of several sememes within the same paradigm or lexical family; the general significate of a semantic field, which subsists in case of the neutralization of semantic oppositions. The archisememe represents the common conceptual essence (e.g., 'furniture for sitting' for chair, armchair, and stool) and may or may not be materialized by an archilexeme.
