The Characteristics of Entities

Whilst entities are fundamentally ostensive, we can still say that an entity has these characteristics:

  1. an entity is a self-sufficient existent, as against a quality, action, relationship, etc., which are aspects of some entity or entities which man separates out by a specialised focus—an entity is a thing; this, you, it; as against hot, cold, running, jumping, to the left of, etc.;
  2. an entity is perceptual in scale—it is a solid thing that you can perceive and point to.
