In computer science, the term semantics refers to the meaning of languages, as opposed to their form (syntax).
Semantics "provides the rules for interpreting the syntax which do not provide the meaning directly but constrains the possible interpretations of what is declared."
In other words, semantics is about interpretation of an expression.
Additionally, the term is applied to certain types of data structures specifically designed and used for representing information content.
