Noun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Representing nouns in a muspace

Mu is primarily interested in representing People in a shared environment. But we can't neglect the rest of the categories of nouns

Noun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

person, place, thing, event, substance, quality, or idea, etc. This is a semantic definition.

These can all be seen as layers, or filters. Allow for only the People layer to be visible, and the Things layer to be translucent.

Add to that further filters:

count nouns
mass nouns
collective nouns
concrete nouns
abstract nouns
pronouns
substantive nouns (predicate adjectives) (qualities)
