👉 In linguistics, a homotypic term refers to a term that is used in multiple languages or contexts. It can refer to any word or phrase that is used interchangeably between different speakers of the same language. Homotypic terms are often used in conjunction with other words or phrases to form new expressions or constructions. For example, "dog" and "cat" could be considered homotypic terms because they are both used interchangeably by people who speak English.
