What does Hyponyms mean?

- In linguistics, semantics, general semantics, and ontologies, hyponymy (from Ancient Greek ὑπό (hupó) 'under', and ὄνυμα (ónuma) 'name') is a semantic relation between a hyponym denoting a subtype and a hypernym or hyperonym (sometimes called umbrella term or blanket term) denoting a supertype. In other words, the semantic field of the hyponym is included within that of the hypernym.In simpler terms, a hyponym is in a type-of relationship with its hypernym. For example, pigeon, crow, eagle, and seagull are all hyponyms of bird, their hypernym, which itself is a hyponym of animal, its hypernym.
