Detailing

The choice of keyed characters is as closely related as possible to the corresponding icon, and ideally is acceptable to all language cultures.

The Keyed-Icon will normally be combined with tags and other Planguage-Terms to give Complete statements or expressions. For example “A <- B” (B is source for A). A pure icon is a possibility, for example “O--->“ indicating a performance characteristic.

Some Keyed-Icons, like many words, are ambiguous in isolation, but are unambiguous in Context of other specifications.
