The Commens Dictionary

Quote from ‘The Century Dictionary Supplement, Vol. II’

Quote: 

Whatever is in any sense present to the mind, whatever its cognitive value may be, and whether it be objectified or not. A term proposed by C. S. Peirce in order to avoid loading ‘phenomenon,’ ‘thought,’ ‘idea,’ etc., with multiple meanings.
