Tsuwm, somewhere back in the mists of AWADtalk, there was a post about either: a word that describes words with one meaning, yet has more than one meaning of its own, OR, a word that describes words with several meanings, but only has one of its own. And I think that post was by you. But I can't remember the word. It wasn't monosemous or monosemy; I just did a search on those. Help?
Now--wsieber, I appreciated your oh-so-subtle parallel in using prime (think numbers) in reference to monosemous. Brilliant!
