“…Haro et al (2017b) present two different subjective variables: NOM (number of meanings) and ROM (relatedness of meanings). The latter variable is obtained through a Likert scale: participants were asked 6 There are some works that seem to prove the opposed view: the dictionary approach and the subjective, synchronic classification do not correlate (Haro et al 2015;López-Cortés 2019). Some information regarding this topic is presented in Section 4.1.…”

Lexical ambiguity takes place when a word has more than one meaning. This phenomenon could therefore lead to multiple difficulties in the processing of information; however, speakers deal almost effortlessly with ambiguous units on a daily basis. In order to understand how ambiguous items are processed by speakers, a clear synchronic definition of homonymy and polysemy is needed. In this paper a methodology to gather subjective information about ambiguous words and the relation within their meanings is proposed. Based on this methodology, a corpus of Spanish stimuli is being developed: this corpus consists of words classified as monosemic, homonymous and polysemous via the subjective interpretation of Spanish speakers. This corpus could be used to conduct experimental tasks to determine the behaviour in on-line processing of items with more than one meaning, in order to later design appropriate methods of approaching this complex phenomenon from the point of view of Psycholinguistics.

La Semántica sigue siendo una disciplina que queda en un segundo plano en la clase de Lengua y Literatura. En algunos libros de texto, se establecen ejercicios sistemáticos que tienden a la repetición de las definiciones y dejan a un lado el aprendizaje significativo del alumnado. Sin embargo, los fenómenos semánticos son una oportunidad perfecta para convertir a los alumnos en los protagonistas de la reflexión metalingüística. En este trabajo se presenta una reflexión sobre dos de los fenómenos semánticos estudiados a lo largo de toda la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria: la ambigüedad léxica y la sinonimia. El objetivo que se persigue es doble: por un lado, actualizar la base teórica relativa a estos fenómenos y, por otro lado, mostrar cómo es posible enriquecer los materiales y actividades de los que disponemos en el aula. De esta manera, se establecen pautas para la mejora del estudio del significado.

“…In Table 2, a summary of the all data is presented. With all the data gathered, we believe it is relevant to point out once again how the information compiled in the dictionary is not the same as the one in the long-term memory of native speakers, at least regarding the classification of ambiguous words, such as homonymy or polysemy (as already shown by Haro et al 2015 andLópez-Cortés 2019; but somehow contrary to Fraga et al 2017). 14 Homonymy has been considered to be a far less frequent phenomenon than polysemy, since it is hard for two non-related words to converge in form.…”
