Notes: [{'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'As in the case of other so-called semantic derivatives, it seems best in this instance likewise to employ only evident glosses. One could, of course define the process of hearing as ‘perceiving by means of the ears,’ but such a definition would be unnecessarily artificial.'}, {'Caller': 2, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'The idiom κνήθομαι τὴν ἀκοήν involves two quite distinct semantic features. One is the desire to be pleased, and the second is the means of such gratification, namely, what is heard. It would be possible to classify this idiom either under Sensory Events and States (Domain 24) or here in the domain of Attitudes and Emotions. Since in {S:05500400300040} the latter seems the more focal feature of meaning, the idiom is included at this point.'}]

         Glosses: ['ability to hear', 'hearing']

         Comments: In some languages it may be better to speak about the organs involved rather than the related faculties, for example, ‘if the whole body were an eye, what about the ears?’

         DefinitionShort: (derivative of {L:ἀκούω}[a] ‘to hear,’ {D:24.52}) that which is heard by someone

         Glosses: ['what is heard', 'message']

         Comments: In a number of languages the closest equivalent of ‘message’ would be ‘that which is said’ rather than ‘that which is heard,’ and accordingly, one may perhaps best translate {S:04501001600028} as ‘who has believed what we said.’

         DefinitionShort: (derivative of {L:ἀκούω}[c] ‘to receive news,’ {D:33.212}) the content of the news which is heard

         Glosses: ['news', 'report', 'information']

         Comments: In a number of languages, however, it is impossible to speak of ‘news spreading.’ It therefore may be necessary to render {S:04000402400008} as ‘people throughout the whole country of Syria kept hearing from one another about him.’
