Abstract
The words of each language are semantic and grammatically organized in a «family of words». Inside in, all the words have the same root, which is categorized and determined by morphological and syntactic complements. Therefore these lexical-genetic processes generate the words. In this kind of linguistic structure, words appear as grammatical and denotative variations with a more or less wide dispersion but their uses are always based in the relationship between them. The semantic dispersion of a part of the Spanish family of VEN- is shown in this paper.
