I believe the answer is:

semantics

'branch of linguistics' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for semantics that I've seen before include "The meaning attached to words" , "Branch of linguistics to do with meaning" , "The significance of a text" , "Main sects (anag.)" , "Branch of linguistics concerned with meanings" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
