"Semantics is the study of meaning of words and phrases in a language. Not only
linguist but also philosophers are also interested in it. In the past philosophers hare
been much more concerned with it but now it is deeply studied in linguistics also. Its
field is very wide. It studies the way of paraphrasing, transformation and detecting the
ambiguities. To understand the meaning of a sentence and its semantic relations with
other expressions only the meaning of lexical items is not enough but one is also
required to know how they inter – relate. A semantic analysis explains antonyms,
synonyms, homonyms, and polysemy, Hyponyms, Meronym, Homonymy,
Homophony and Homographs. The author of this paper has thrown light on semantics
and different aspect of semantics and then defined synonyms, antonyms, Homonyms
and polysemy etc. and has given examples from Pashto language and concluded that
Homograph Homonyms and Polysyms are greater in number in Pashto while
Homophone are very short in Pashto language.
