ALexical semantics ✓ Correct
BUnderstanding
CKnowledge
DInternalisation
Correct answer: (A) Lexical semantics
Explanation
Meanings in communication go beyond lexical semantics.
Beyond dictionary word-meaning, communication carries context, tone and cultural connotation.
Understanding is an outcome of meaning, not a boundary that meaning surpasses.
Knowledge is a broader store, not the specific limit the statement points past.
Internalisation is the taking-in of meaning, not the level meaning exceeds.
Connotation and pragmatics extend meaning past the literal word.
