Within a particular language, an especially rich cluster of related words is referred to as a semantic field.

Here's why:

* Semantic: This refers to the meaning of words.

* Field: This implies a specific area or domain of related concepts.

Therefore, a semantic field encompasses a group of words that share a common underlying concept or theme. For example:

* Colors: Red, blue, green, yellow, purple, etc.

* Emotions: Happy, sad, angry, scared, excited, etc.

* Family: Mother, father, son, daughter, brother, sister, etc.

These clusters of words provide a framework for understanding the nuances of a language and how words relate to each other.
