ABSTRACT
Search engines today allow a user to quickly find relevant documents among the hundreds of millions of documents on the world-wide-web. These search engines use keywords as the primary way to index into documents. Most users learn to live with this, as keywords are an approximation to textual material. The chapter begins to see how the cognitive status of ‘basic level’ categories can improve the situation. In taxonomy of concepts, a concept at the basic level adds many attributes to the level, but very few are added to the level. At the basic level, many remarkable connections exist between imagery and language.
