意味（1）

(semantics) A relationship of semantic inclusion, such as that between "store" and "shopping mall".

We can also briefly note that both a sense description of the type given above and the use of meaning postulates can be compared to the notion of endonymy, which was introduced by Cruse (1986: 123 f). It is intended to describe the relation between two lexical items when the meaning of one of them would seem to be included in that of the other.

意味（2）

The use of the name for a group or geographic region by its members or inhabitants, as opposed to the nomenclature used by outsiders.

Eduardo Viveiros de Castro (Brazil/Paris) analysed the comparative relation between exonymy and endonymy in lowland South America.
