Only a few new words I learnt during the making of my dissertation. This is how I understand them. For further explanation, please refer wikipedia.
Etymology: study of origin of a word
Semantics: development of the meaning of a word contextually over time
Kitsch: a cheap reproduction of the original
Epistemology: study of development of language
Hermeneutics: study of development of a theory and interpretation and understanding of texts.
Gestalt: a theory which does not depend on orthodox rationalism or empiricism for its explanation
