+==Definition==
 '''Polysemy''' is the phenomenon that a [[word]] acquires new usages which, over time, are likely to become more like new [[meaning]]s.
-===Semantics===
+==Semantics==
 The phenomenon that a word has several different meanings which are closely related to each other. The [[ambiguity]] of ''church'' (either a building or an institution) is an instance of polysemy.
-===Example===
+==Example==
 The [[English]] word ''mouth'' refers first of all to the opening of the buccal cavity, but next to this it refers to the point where a river joins the sea.
