adj
- Intended or planned; done deliberately or voluntarily.
-
Reflecting intention; marking an expenditure of will in the shape of a matter.
“It should, however, be borne in mind that even in the cohortative proper, the -ah does not add to the simple imperfect the ‘intentional’ signification expressed by that mood: the signification is already there, and the new termination merely renders it more prominent.”
- Done with intent.
- (obsolete)Object to intention, only appearing due to wilful perception.
noun
- (archaic)Something that has no essential underlying structure but apparition only as defined by perception; object only because consciousness is directed to it.
- The cohortative mood as found in Hebrew (terminology borrowed from Julius Friedrich Böttcher † 1863 and now outmoded), and constructions of similar purpose in even more exotic languages.
