  • Note regarding V1.2: there are many papers which take roughly V1.1, but without the 'large' and the 'no definite shape' to be not equating some object and not equating with a quantity of the matter. However, neither of the papers provide a definition and instead illustrate the difference with examples and characteristic features as distinct from objects and count nouns.
