meaning

meaning is all the minformation necessary to relate and create certainty around an object.

The minformation may have any form, such as emotions, sensations, symbols, knowledge, minformation footprint, narratives (the minformation spectrum)

All the minformation conforming meaning has a conditioning effect for how to relate to this object.

It is not possible to communicate the full meaning of an object because high level minformation abstractions can be only partially expressed by language and low level minformation abstraction like sensations and emotions can't be replicated, just very poor projections of them.

When we express the meaning of an object in natural language, the minformation spectrum used to express it is highly narrowed in comparison to what we have in our body and mind. We express only the more significant parts of it due to the limitations of language.

E: meaning usages:

• "What do you mean?": I'm missing information to further understand how you relate to X.
• "What's the meaning of X?": Which narrative can help me to make sense of X, so I can fully relate to it.
• "X means a lot to me" (is meaningful): The minformation that I have associated to X plays a very significant role to how I relate to my environment
• "X means nothing to me": --> X has no impact on how I relate to my environment.
