it would be close to an " understanding " the field would surround the term " new york" . and where you came
in contact with it would fix its meaning. . its not the definition of new york but the concept as we spoke
about. . understanding as a field like structure leads to nice models.
dont confuse trumps statements with anything meaningful. . he views propaganda as an inexpensive tool. he
thinks it odd that people will take action based on his tweets. .

For word meanings, the closest I can think of to something like this is an array of meaning postulates, in
Camap's sense, something that Jerry Fodor for one has toyed with. Multidimensional, but not a field. I don't

happy chanukah. . - has anyone in the past made a linguistic model that used fields instead of
definitions. similar to a magnet field. to some degree. there is no one vector that describes the word but
a field of them. home surrounded by a field of definitions. not based on 3 d space but based on context .
one could integrate over the field. see smoothness. strength , change.. not sure it is useful. but having
fun
