# air, breath; essence, spirit, hidden reality, unseen agent, meaning | |||

=== Notes === | |||
kon covers a very wide range of ideas that are loosely related to each other through the concept of being known, but not seen. You'll often hear people use the phrase "unseen agent" to describe kon. I've divided this semantic space into three parts: spirits, meaning, and gas. toki pona connects these concepts by giving them all the same word. | |||
