Question

You have learnt that the king, the queen, the bishop, etc. are called ‘chessmen’. So, you can call any of them a ‘chessman’. This is a special word that represents six names. Such a word that includes the meanings of other particular words is called a ‘superordinate’ word or a ‘hypernym’. The words that are included in a hypernym are called hyponyms. In the above example, chessman is the hypernym. Its hyponyms are ‘king’, ‘queen’, ‘bishop’, ‘knight’, ‘rook’, and ‘pawn’. A hypernym can be a hyponym of another hypernym.
