Seamntic

[John M <***>]

Judith, Tim, or whoever feels like replying:

the word 'semantic' has been used lately on this list
well, so 100 times. As far as I read, none referring
to the meaning as MEANING - I usually look for behind
it. 
Would somebody have the kindness to explain the
semantics of 'semantic' as used in the ongoing posts?
(...antics).

Of course syntax (the structuring of sentences in the
grammatical sense) is another such usage, but I want
to ask one qurestion at a time. Let the sin-tax come
later.
