a name that points to a place where a thing can be put

Address (noun) means: a name that points to a place where a thing can be put. It emerges from name, points, space: the name and the point together indicate a specific location for putting something. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 16, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
