#value
- Absolute — 1. Adjective and adverb expressing something complete, perfect, total, independent of anything else, and suffering no limitation or condition. 2. Neuter noun (capitalized: the Absolute): a fundamental metaphysical concept denoting the ultimate, perfect, unconditioned, and infinite reality, the divinity, or the ultimate foundation of existence. In ethics, the term defines immutable moral values (such as Good or Truth) that remain valid regardless of historical or cultural contexts.
- Added — Having been placed, included, or joined next to an existing element or quantity to enlarge, complete, or integrate it; existing in addition to the initial structure. In economics, the term is heavily used in the phrase 'value-added tax' (VAT), designating the extra value created during the production and distribution process of a good.
- Adiaphorization — The act of becoming indifferent from a moral, religious, or spiritual standpoint; a structural conceptual process through which an individual or a community transforms facts previously considered dogmatic or mandatory into neutral matters (adiaphora). This phenomenon of ethical relativization removes axiological tension and qualifies tolerance or indifference toward strict rules of social conduct.
- To admire — To look at or consider someone or something with a feeling of great esteem, deep respect, sympathy, delight, or wonder, due to exceptional moral, intellectual, artistic, or physical qualities; to highly value the worth or beauty of a being, object, or action.
- Admiration — A feeling of high esteem, deep respect, appreciation, and delight in the face of the moral, intellectual, artistic, or physical qualities of a person, or the grandeur of a phenomenon or work. It represents a superior affective state that goes beyond mere approval, generating a desire for emulation and the recognition of objective value in society.
- Agio — The positive difference between the nominal value of a security (share, bond) or a currency and its real market value (exchange rate or trading value). In a structural sense, it represents a financial surplus received by a company when issuing shares above their nominal value, acting as a profitability indicator and a share premium in modern accounting.
- Agio — A positive difference between the nominal value of a security (stock, bond) or currency and its higher market value; a commission, fee, or percentage collected by banks or exchange offices for conducting certain financial operations or foreign exchange. It represents a structural indicator of share premiums or advantageous quotes in commercial transactions.
- Adjusted — Having undergone a methodical process of adjustment, correction, calibration, or structural adaptation; an object, value, or system precisely modified to perfectly match strict standards, specific dimensions, or new environmental realities. In garment manufacturing, it describes a piece of clothing that is tight-fitting or geometrically altered to closely follow the anatomical lines of the body; in macroeconomics and finance, it denotes a raw indicator (such as GDP or net profit) mathematically rectified to eliminate the distorting influences of inflation, seasonality, or parasitic exogeneous factors.
- Friendship — A close interpersonal relationship based on mutual affection, esteem, trust, absolute respect, and a community of ideas or interests; a stable and selfless bond uniting two or more people, recognized as a fundamental social and moral value in an individual's psychological development.
- Amoral — Devoid of moral perception, situated outside moral criteria or norms; exhibiting no awareness or concern regarding the distinction between right and wrong. Unlike immoral (which consciously violates ethical standards), the term describes a structural ethical neutrality, being applied to concepts, actions, natural phenomena, or scientific theories.
- Amoralism — A philosophical doctrine or attitude based on the negation of absolute moral values and norms, asserting that human actions or cognitive criteria must be evaluated completely independently of concepts such as virtue or sin. This current is often correlated with ethical nihilism, radical relativism, or interpretations of Friedrich Nietzsche's philosophy.
- Amorality — The quality or state of being amoral; the character of an action, idea, or attitude that is situated entirely outside moral norms, values, or criteria. Unlike immorality, amoralitate represents a structural ethical neutrality or an absence of moral awareness, rather than a conscious intent to violate an ethical code.
- Anthological — Belonging to an anthology, referring to an anthology; a text, fragment, or work of such remarkable value that it deserves to be included in a representative collection. In a broad and figurative sense, the term describes an event, a quote, a moment, or an achievement of exceptional, memorable quality, which remains fixed as an absolute benchmark in a specific field.
- Approximated — An etymological or bookish spelling variant for the word 'aproximat'; having been evaluated or determined in an estimated manner, not being perfectly exact or mathematically rigorous, but close enough to reality to be utilized for practical purposes. In a technical sense, it describes the state of a result or measurement whose value includes an acceptable tolerance according to industrial standards.
- Appreciable — Considerably large, important, or valuable enough to deserve attention; capable of being clearly evaluated, felt, or measured. Frequently used in a quantitative sense to describe a noteworthy difference, amount, or progress that exceeds the limits of a negligible value.
- Appreciated — Enjoying esteem, respect, praise, or recognition from the public, colleagues, or an authority; considered valuable, useful, or of high quality. In a technical or academic sense, it describes an object, asset, or result that has undergone an evaluation process and received a positive rating.
- Artisticity — The character of being artistic; the quality of a work being executed according to superior aesthetic requirements and producing a powerful artistic emotion. In literary and art criticism, the term designates the degree of mastery, expressiveness, and structural originality that differentiates a valuable creation from a purely utilitarian text or object.
- Ascorbic — Relating to or belonging to ascorbic acid; a term used almost exclusively within the phrase 'ascorbic acid', which represents the official chemical name for Vitamin C. It is a water-soluble organic compound with potent antioxidant properties, holding a vital structural role in collagen synthesis, immune system function, iron absorption, and the prevention of scurvy.
- Assertion — A firm statement, enunciation, or proposition that is maintained as true, certain, and incontestable, without necessarily being accompanied by an immediate demonstration. In logic and epistemology, it represents an act of judgment by which a positive truth value is assigned to an utterance, becoming a fundamental element in building a rational argument system.
- Internalized — Having been transformed through conscious assumption or internalization; a status, concept, or trait that has acquired the character of being fully and deliberately embraced. The term describes the state of an abstract element that is no longer merely imposed from the outside, but deeply internalized and manifested with absolute certainty.
