Semantic Feature

A semantic feature is a notational method which can be used to express the existence or non-existence of semantic properties by using plus and minus signs. Man is +HUMAN, +MALE, +ADULT
Woman is +HUMAN, -MALE, +ADULT
Boy is +HUMAN, +MALE, -ADULT
Girl is +HUMAN, -MALE, -ADULT Intersecting semantic classes share the same features. Some features need not be specifically mentioned as their presence or absence is obvious from another feature. This is a redundancy rule.
