Hyponymic relations are the relations of inclusion. Hyponymy (or inclusion) is a relationship between two words in which the meaning of one is includes the meaning of the other. The «upper» general term is the superordinate (hy peronym) and the «lower» term is specific - hyponym. The relations between co-hyponyms may be described as the relations of exclusion. The members of the set of co-hyponyms may be described as incompatibles.
