Semantics

Lexicography

Syntagmatic

Paradigmatic

All these concepts have their own meaning and work differently, but at the same time, they compliment each other in the study of linguistics. Some of them can be confusing at first, but when you comprehend them it's easier to understand their importance. Talking about lexicology, I think it will be very interesting to see how many times a word can change without losing its lexical meaning.
