While I was reactivating my old slides on semantics (Semantics & Pragmatics), I thought: #JohnLyons is better than #SKOS and #OWL. These are basic terms from the Sixties, foundation of linguistics, every student of linguistics knows them after the 3rd term - introduction to linguistics or semantics.
E.g. Jaguar (animal) and Jaguar (car) are #homonyms and not one polysemous lexeme.
The notions of #homonymy and #polysemy are fuzzy, in #QuantitativeLinguistics the term #polylexy is used.
