Definition: Long-term memory of world knowledge (words, concepts, facts...) independent of the spatio-temporal context of acquisition.
Définition : Mémoire à long terme spécialisée dans la connaissance du monde (mots, concepts, faits...) indépendante du contexte spatio-temporel d'acquisition. Dans les conceptions récentes, la mémoire sémantique est dite noétique ce qui signifie qu'elle s'accompagne d'une simple conscience d'une connaissance sur le monde sur la base d'un sentiment de familiarité.
Broader term: declarative memory
Terme générique : mémoire déclarative
Narrower terms: prior knowledge, encyclopedic memory, mental lexicon, semantic feature
Termes spécifiques : connaissances pré-existantes, mémoire encyclopédique, lexique mental, trait sémantique
