To create a state from the occurrence of some action or condition. The incident is the cause of the existence of the state, therefore the result is defined by the occurrence, but the action or condition is not described or reliant on the resultant state.

To produce or exist in a position that some element does not occur or stand in relation to a defined state. This can be the opposite of on an element or removed from the presence of the element.

To exist or act in a manner similar to another. Both do not need to be the same, however they must have similarities that allow one to be or act like the other. In most cases, the elements are similar or nearly the same, and one might be able to interchange with another.

To explain the nature of an object, space, or time by the absence of another. This is a subtractive method of defining the condition, and the full understanding of the relationship can only occur with the description of that removed.

To describe by adding an entity or entities to a group. These additions give a better understanding or only understanding of the initial element. There must be similarities between the entities in the group.

To use conditionally on the occurrence of an event or state, where one cannot exist or act without the presence of the other. In this way, the relationship and nature of the elements is only fully given at the incident.

To add to another, previous time or object, where the addition changes or improves the description of the other. The inclusion of the element changes the meaning of the entity added. The two are similar, but they reinforce each other.

To describe something as having a purpose or requirement to another. The definition of the object is implied through the use of that object. With the entities separated, there is not a necessary relationship between them. However, when combined there is a similarity or purpose.

To define through the absence of a time, space, or object. The subtractive description defines the entity, but also provides or requires an understanding of the element or elements removed or not included.

To combine multiple elements to create a newly defined grouping or aggregation. The state or identity of the elements bear the meaning which transfers directly to the combination. This relationship is stronger than that with.
