This is a definition that is going to be referenced later in the narrative. The context of the definition is the enclosing phrase. The whole context is to be remembered by the reader at every reoccurrence of the defined term. This is key to understanding reconstructions.

If the term is a noun, the use of “the” refers to the original instance. The use of “a” refers to a new instance. The definition can also be referenced through grammatical variants. For example, <simple>⁠DEF is referenced by <simplicity> or even <simplistic>.

You can click on a reference to find the corresponding definition.

-This is a definition. The scope of the definition is the enclosing phrase. This scope is to be [[Discipline|exactly remembered]] by the reader at every reoccurrence of this definition through various, [[Conventions|possibly grammatically incorrect]] but intuitive form variants. Every reoccurrence adds to the scope. This is key to understanding this [[reconstruction]]. In particular, '''the definition thus singled out is not an abstraction of its scope'''. It carries its scopes forever til completion of the reconstruction.
