💬 Usage Examples
“The ambiguity of ‘size or location’ is key to [Giorgio] Morandi’s indelible modernity. It’s as if he had set out, time and again, to nail down the whatness of his objects but couldn’t get beyond the preliminary matter of their whereness.” Peter Schjeldahl; Tables for One; The New Yorker; Sep 22, 2008.
