Gradient
Sunday, August 30th, 2009It is a fun thing to arrange in your mind a set of adjectives and order them by intensity of meaning, or to otherwise sort them. It seems a good way to keep your words from gathering dust. It’s also interesting to think how others might sort the same list differently.

And what other words would you add to this list for greater detail? Noise, absent, modern, interference, absurd, non-entity? Each of these words has their own meaning, but when placed somewhere outside or in-between entries in the list “rococo…decorative…simple…”, they may take a unique spot on this gradient of meaning and of word.
