Language is defined as system of communication that uses arbitrary signals such as voice sounds, gestures or written symbols. However, frankly speaking, language is too complex, intriguing, and mysterious to be adequately explained by a brief definition. To carry meaning is the most organic function of the language. Most of the problems in linguistic science are closely intimately bound of semasiology and call for scientific analysis of communication in words. The study of words is not exclusively a study of roots and stems, of prefixes or suffixes. The mysterious world of words is an object of scientific investigation. Since the times of Plato and Aristotle, the process of development of new meaning in language is the most important and attractive research problem among scholars, philosophers and grammarians. From those times sameness of meaning was difficult to cope with but it was more complicated to distinguish difference of meaning. The position is the same nowadays. Not only there are different meanings in different words, but also it is the fact that the same word may have a set of meanings. This concept is called polysemy.
