Because such elements of conceptual information as (COUNTRY-BORN) and (CULTIVATING LAND) seem to be epistemologically central to the conceptual microcategory MAN OF THE COUNTRY, the semantics of such lexical categories as bumpkin, yokel, hick and dirt farmer allows us to relate the categories to a more marginal position in MAN OF THE COUNTRY; someone referred to as bumpkin, yokel, hick and dirt farmer is, by the same token, a less representative example of the category MAN OF THE COUNTRY than someone referred to as farmer, rustic, or peasant.
