Huh? Are you implying that the meaning of symbolic form depends on it’s grammatical role in constructing an abstraction? >From the historical perspective of language development, it appears you have >deeper criteria for creating abstract concepts. Perhaps you can elucidate >your view? BTW, my feeling is very simple. Either term either denotes or connotes an abstract concept, depending on the construction and context of the usage. The completeness attribute of the proper grammatical form is optional. Cheers Jerry
