"The terms "popular music" and "pop music" are often used interchangeably, although the former describes all music that is popular (and can include any style)."
so in exhibit B, what we have is a case of common misuse of terminology.
ahh yes, oh how much it does indeed prove in this most fundamental of arguments.

Sach you're essentially pissing on a bushfire here and no amount of fancy language can win you the argument (regarding hip hop and lyricism) . In fact they make you out to be even more of a pretentious looser

at least i'm not a pretentious tighter amirite????

if no amount of fancy language can win an argument, why can fancy language in hip-hop win you over?

"the lyrics on this are the best of the decade tbh"

"a can sometimes be b but b is not always a"
if you're using this line of argument, you're essentially saying that both terms are meaningless as forms of categorisation. sweeeeet

here i teach sach what homonyms are as my last lesson of the day





In linguistics, a homonym is one of a group of words that share the same pronunciation but have different meanings, whether spelled the same or not. A more restrictive definition sees homonyms as words that are simultaneously homographs (words that share the same spelling, regardless of their pronunciation) and homophones (words that share the same pronunciation, regardless of their spelling)[1] – that is to say they have same pronunciation and spelling, but different meanings. The relationship between a set of homonyms is called homonymy. Examples of homonyms are the pair stalk (part of a plant) and stalk (follow/harass a person) and the pair left (past tense of leave) and left (opposite of right). A distinction is sometimes made between "true" homonyms, which are unrelated in origin, such as skate (glide on ice) and skate (the fish), and polysemous homonyms, or polysemes, which have a shared origin, such as mouth (of a river) and mouth (of an animal).[2][3]



In non-technical contexts, the term "homonym" may be used (somewhat confusingly) to refer to words that are either homographs or homophones.[1] The words row (propel with oars) and row (argument) and row (a linear arrangement of seating) are considered homographs, while the words read (peruse) and reed (waterside plant) would be considered homophones; under this looser definition, both groups of words represent groups of homonyms.



The adjective homonymous can additionally be used wherever two items share the same name,[4][5] independent of how close they are or aren't related in terms of their meaning or etymology.

"a homonym is one of a group of words that share the same pronunciation but have different meanings, whether spelled the same or not"
til popular has the same pronunciation as pop!

you're really good at copy-pasting shit from wiki and pretending that it makes you correct, i'll grant you that.

How did this thread go from discussing the importance if lyrics in hip hop to this shit.
