arguing semantics 

When people argue about the definition or meaning of a word. This usually starts in the middle of an argument and distracts from the main topic of the argument. Whether done intentionally or not depends on the people arguing.

When an argument deteriorates and its focus becomes one about word definitions rather than the main topic, a person will usually say "Oh, now we're just arguing semantics". Usually by this point, the arguement has become a waste of time because it has morphed into a bunch of bickering about irrelevant, unimportant details rather than the original main point.

If someone accuses you of arguing semantics, they're usually accusing you of intentionally avoiding the topic. In this case, the person may or may not be misusing the phrase in order to do so. If you're not actually arguing about word definitions, then they should accuse you of being nit-picky instead (as that would be more accurate) but to explain it to this degree becomes a bit nit-picky in and of itself and so for obvious reasons, this is the end.

Jenny: Hey Tommy, did you do your homework?
Tommy: I would never do my homework.
Jenny: What do you mean? You always do your homework!
Tommy: No, I would never "do" my homework - that would be gross. But if you want to know if I completed my homework...
Jenny: Oh, please. Spare me. Now you're just arguing semantics.

semantika 

(eng. semantics) When you open html element and close it with different tag. Etc. <h5></h4>
Also using div element too much will make for a good semantika on your website.

Code editor might underline your semantika but just ignore it or turn off this "feature"

P1: Kamo to čo tam použivaš section, aside, header, footer elementy som to v živote nevidel. (Dude why u are using section aside header footer elements I have never seen them)
P2: Hej no to je na kokot semantika, prepiš to na div. (You right, that semantika is fucked up, just replace it with div)

semantics 

The main purpose for internet forums.
The study of discussing the meaning/interpretation of words or groups of words within a certain context; usually in order to win some form of argument.

Now come on, let's not get bogged down in semantics.

Anti-Semantic

adj.
Being against the arguing of meanings or definitions of words.

"Look, I just don't care if the Holocaust refers specifically to the murder of the Ashkenazi Jews or if it can be used more broadly to the Nazi's persecution of other minorities!"

"Wow, stop being so anti-semantic! This is important."

Semantic field

When a text (anything with words, whether it be spoken or written) has a topic or subject that a group of words relate to. If a passage of writing included the words
"heart", "flower", "love", "music", "passion" the semantic field would most likely be considered 'love'. A semantic field of love. Also the lexis may be referred to as "flowery" or even femnine

"There is a noticeable semantic field of war - used to reflect that the character is a warrior"
