English-French-Persian

A branch of → linguistics that studies the formation, meaning, and use of words and their idiomatic combinations. In contrast to → terminology, lexicology is based on words and does not conceive of meaning unless it is related to the word.

From lexic, from Gk. lexicon, noun use of lexikos "pertaining to words," from lexis "word; speech" (+ -ikos, → -ics), from legein "to say, speak, recount," + -o-, + → -logy.

Vâžešnâsi, from vâžé, → word, + -šenâsi, → -logy.
