Discussion
Assertion - (I) : The term 'componential Analysis' is studied under semantics. Assertion - (II) : The term 'Componential Analysis' is studied under semiotics.
Codes :
Answer: A
Statement (I) is true and statement (II) is false. Componential analysis, which breaks a word's meaning into semantic features, such as [+human, +male, +adult] for 'man', belongs to semantics, in particular lexical semantics.
Semiotics is the general study of signs and sign systems, and while it covers meaning, componential analysis is not a term studied under it in the standard classification. So option A is the key, and options B, C and D wrongly make (II) true.
