Greek semantic domain

Behavior and Related States

Domain source subdomain 041 contains a number of meanings which overlap to some extent with other domains. It is not always clear whether a particular term in some contexts refers primarily to psychological attitudes (Domain source subdomain 025) or relates to more general behavior and related states (Domain source subdomain 041). Furthermore, in Domain source subdomain 041 there may be some meanings which could be interpreted as representing moral or ethical qualities (Domain source subdomain 088), but in Domain source subdomain 041 the focus is upon the activities themselves and the results of such activities rather than upon the moral or ethical qualities of persons who may be involved.
