contronyms, or Janus words: words that are their own opposites
на картинке — двуликий римский бог Янус, по имени которого получили свое название слова, также известные как контронимы или автоантонимы. например:
dust — и убирать пыль, и припылить: 🟧Dust your room, we are having guests later. 🟧Dust the top of the cake with icing sugar.
sanction — и разрешить, и запретить. тут можно догадаться только по более широкому контексту, отдельное предложение не даст нужной информации: 🔴You can do it: the government sanctioned it. 🔴You can't do it: the government sanctioned it.
oversight — и внимательный взгляд, и ошибка по недосмотру: 🟧The new manager was given oversight of the project. 🟧If you forgot to add sugar while baking cookies because you were texting a friend, it's an oversight.
в русском языке контронимы тоже есть. со словами санкция и просмотреть у нас, например, та же штука.

Although some channels have been removed, the curation process is considered opaque and insufficient by analysts. Such instructions could actually endanger people — citizens receive air strike warnings via smartphone alerts. You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. "The inflation fire was already hot and now with war-driven inflation added to the mix, it will grow even hotter, setting off a scramble by the world’s central banks to pull back their stimulus earlier than expected," Chris Rupkey, chief economist at FWDBONDS, wrote in an email. "A spike in inflation rates has preceded economic recessions historically and this time prices have soared to levels that once again pose a threat to growth." In this regard, Sebi collaborated with the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to reduce the vulnerability of the securities market to manipulation through misuse of mass communication medium like bulk SMS.
