As with any difference of ideals, linguists (pragmatics) and general semantics may argue on a word or phrase if both perceive the words individually. Linguistics focuses on the structure with the sound, sight, grammatical usage and the like while the semantics are only looking at the word for its meaning. Yet it is important to understand that the semantics of a word or phrase is only a part of linguistics and an individual can be both a semanticist and a linguist.

Relationship between phonology and semantics?
Phonology is the study of the distribution and patterning of speech sounds in a language and the rules governing pronunciation. Semantics is the study of the meaning, changes in meanings and the principles that govern the relationship between sentences and words and their meanings. To seek a difference, the relationship is that Phonology covers speech sounds and their distribution in general. Semantics is the detail of these sounds.
