Introduction, Important Definitions and Related Concepts:

One view of space is that it is part of the fundamental structure of the universe, a set of dimensions in which objects are separated and located, have size and shape, and through which they can move. In common usage, a dimension (Latin, "measured out") is a parameter or measurement used to describe some relevant characteristic of an object. In philosophy, an object is a thing, an entity, or a being. Latin (lingua latīna, pronounced [laˈtiːna]) is an ancient Indo-European language that was spoken in the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire. In mathematics, statistics, and the mathematical sciences, a parameter (L: auxiliary measure) is a quantity that defines certain characteristics of systems or functions. Measurement means the dimension, quantity, or capacity determined by measuring: the measurements of a room. Philosophy is the discipline concerned with questions of how one should live (ethics); what sorts of things exist and what are their essential natures (metaphysics); what counts as genuine knowledge (epistemology); and what are the correct principles of reasoning (logic).[1][2] An entity is something that has a distinct, separate existence, though it need not be a material existence. In ontology, the study of being, being is anything that can be said to be, either transcendentally or immanently. Pronounced means spoken; voiced.
