One lexeme can be in a number of these relations, therefore, the lexicon can be described as a network of words, rather than a list similar to a dictionary. The lexical field is a key principle the lexicon is organized by. One of these lexical fields is watercraft. As a continuation of my paper ¿A semantic analyses of the lexical field vehicles¿ and because of my interest in sailing, I decided to analyze in my project work the lexical field watercraft. I will start by analyzing synonymous, hyponymic, meronymic, polysemous, and homonymous relations in chapter 2. After this analysis of sense relations, I will continue my research with a closer look at prototype theory. For this purpose I will do a Goodness-of-Exemplar survey with a group of 50 participants. Following a general look at prototype theory in the lexical field of watercraft, I will analyze the results of the survey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause there are a lot of technical terms involved in this lexical field, the reader can find a list of translations and explanations of various lexemes in the appendix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783656261032\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783656261032","offer_id":39446007021661,"sku":"9783656261032","price":16.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/e708a2e2-ca02-4ce7-b726-8e12bce52fe3.jpg?v=1777955300","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/a-semantic-analysis-of-the-lexical-field-watercraft-von-marijke-eggert","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
