for a noun. Lexical selection errors are based on semantic relations such as synonymy, antonymy or membership of the same lexical field. For this reason, the mental lexicon is structured in terms of semantic relationships.

Some substitution errors based on phonological similarities demonstrate that the mental lexicon is also organized in terms of sound.
