Intention of a class

The intension of a class or property is its intended meaning. It consists of one or more common traits shared by all instances of the class or property. These traits need not be explicitly formulated in logical terms, but may just be described in a text (here called a scope note) that refers to a conceptualisation common to domain experts. In particular the so-called primitive concepts, which make up most of the CRM, cannot be further reduced to other concepts by logical terms
