Notes
- It proposes a typology of Polysemous Relations.
- It proposes Polylexy relation for whether two word (senses?) belong in the same Lexical Entry/Dictionary Entry.
- Words are in a Polysemous Relation and not in a Polylexic Relation when its (non-base?) meanings can be predictably generated rather than stored.

The first type of distinctness will be referred to by the traditional term polysemy; the second type will be called polylexy. It is assumed that until a certain degress of polysemy has been demonstrated, questions of polylexy do not arise (i.e., polylexic variants are a sub-class of polysemic variants).
