Data sources were taken from the song lyrics of the latest Ed Sheeran’s album. Some of the meaning words were taken from Cambridge Dictionary and Meriam Webster.

Antonymy accounted for 35.4% of the total, whereas the other types were lower. The second most common form was synonymy, which accounted for up to 32.3%, followed by polysemy and hyponymy, which accounted for 23.1%. Homonymy was the lowest proportion of up to 9.2%.
