Explanation
A knowledge frame that determines which roles, relations, and expectations a term activates. It shows that meaning is organised by an evoked situation.
Example
The word rescue evokes danger, rescuers, and those rescued.
Counterexample
Merely mentioning “Frame” without the described function is not a sufficient example.
Distinction
Do not equate it with a narrower subtype or a merely adjacent concept; the defining function is decisive.
Effect on thought and perception
It shows that meaning is organised by an evoked situation.
Resonance
In the atlas, Frame forms a node joined by 5 previously unresolved reference lines.
Etymology
Technical core term; individual etymological review pending
Provenance
Unresolved relation network → core-concept review → Metzler/HWRh cross-check → ATLAS 238
