Noumenon (disambiguation)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Noumenon, plur. Noumena, is a modern philosophic word used in many languages. It is borrowed without change from the Greek present middle and passive participle of the contract verb, noein (no-e-ein), “to know.” The present participle has a continuous aspect, so that noumenon means more exactly “a thing that is currently being continuously known.” It can mean specifically:
