| Zusammenfassung: | All societies have a tendency to classify their populations, whether by class, function, age, sex, or ethnic origin.

An opening chapter discusses the nature of words, and in particular the state of play in modern lexicography and in modern linguistics, and in the claims made for synchronic and/or diachronic understandings of Hebrew vocabulary. |
