The aim of this work is to investigate the semantic category of hyponymy with the aim of discovering and highlighting the most and least dominant category types in Mansfield's short story, The Little Girl. The findings of the research have found that the most dominant type is body and its parts which occurred 14 times, while least types were transportation and drink, which occurred only 2 times in the data under investigation. The results of the research can enhance and empower instructors and learners of English to learn and use new sets of vocabulary words, which will add more understanding to the language of literary texts too.
