KNOW_LINK_MODE

Definition

Know-link-mode, n.. The transitive and directional relation of a whole to each of its parts.

Comments

The know-link-mode is only an aspect of the link, for a link incorporates all the link-modes, which are knowledge, concurrence, and mergence. This know-link-mode is called know because it expresses the urge to know other ideas. In contrast, the merge-link-mode expresses grouping of parts to equal the whole. Table 5, Transitivity.
