Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract A new type of morphological expressive linguistic means and the corresponding linguistic sign are described: metasemy 1 — an expressive linguistic means that is an operation on the signified of the target lexeme; and metasemy 2 — a sign whose signifier is a metasemy 1 . Thus, the English metasemy 2 painting , when applied to a human proper name, such as, e.g., T urner , produces a derived lexeme, in this case, painting ( T urner) = [ a ] Turner ‘[a] painting by Turner’ ( I have seen two excellent Turners ). A formal description of the Russian metasemy 2 pomeščenie ‘place 2 ’ is presented, based on the analysis of the Russian phrase u otca ‘at father’s’ = ‘at father’s place 2 ’, where the underlying lexeme otec ‘father’ and the derived lexeme pomeščenie (otec) are involved, the meaning ‘place 2 ’ being expressed by the metasemy 2 pomeščenie . The English and French translational equivalents of this phrase, Eng. at father’s and Fr. chez le père , are shown to have different organizations: in at father’s , the meaning ‘place 2 ’ is carried by the ’s -form, and in chez le père , by the preposition chez . A tentative list of known Russian metasemies 2 is supplied, as well as the similar lists for English and French. A metasemy 2 always expresses a metonymic semantic relation between the underlying lexeme and the resulting derived lexeme; it is a derivational morphological means, parallel to derivational affixes. Metasemy 2 seems to exist universally.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
