1) I think our definition, while not exactly wrong, could be expressed better.

I'm proposing a new definition: /meaning/significance/import/

Examples:

問:請先談談原民自治的意涵和架構,以及為何要推動原民自治?
Q: First, could you please talk about the structure and meaning of Aboriginal self-government, and why you are promoting this idea?

明立國認為,在文化的意涵上,這是很重大的事情。
Ming Li-kuo believes this represents a very important change in the songs' cultural significance.

放眼國際,只有極少數的國家還保有自己蓬勃的本土電影市場,可以抵禦好萊塢的大舉入侵,但這常是因為他們的電影有著特殊的政治或社會意涵而使得市場較為封閉。
Looking at the international picture, there are only a handful of countries that maintain a flourishing market for domestically-produced movies and are still able to resist the Hollywood invasion. But this is usually a reflection of the relatively closed nature of their markets, due to the special political or social import of their movies.

當地蓮潭社區的居民自動組成「店仔口文教協會」,有計畫地整理蓮花的文化意涵、
Residents of the Lientan neighborhood formed an association which put together information on the cultural import of the lotus flower,

這種文化意涵有點艱澀的故事,...
As they listen to this story, whose cultural import is a bit difficult to grasp, the students fire off many questions to their teacher.

2) Classifier 層

Web: 一段話7行字,卻有6層意涵

TP: 例如,「玉」指的是美麗的石頭,背後有溫潤之德、象徵君子之美等深厚的文化意涵,了解這層意涵,才能了解中華文化為何特別推崇玉,不只是美麗的石頭而已。
For example, while yu certainly means “jade,” the word also embodies an array of culturally specific metaphoric associations to things such as a gentle and “lustrous” nature and nobility of character. You need an appreciation of these other levels of meaning in order to grasp why jade is so beloved in Chinese societies.

3) (Tw) label

a) It's a very common word in Taiwan -- many dozens of examples in TP.
Googling for .tw yields 2 million results.
But on .cn sites, there are only 0.2 million results.

b) K says it's (Tw).
Diff:
- 意涵 意涵 [yi4 han2] /implication/connotation/
+ 意涵 意涵 [yi4 han2] /(Tw) meaning/significance/import/CL:層|层[ceng2]/
