a state where a matter has more energy capacity than usual for that kind of matter

Hot (adjective) means: a state where a matter has more energy capacity than usual for that kind of matter. It emerges from energy, state, matter, capacity: The capacity.size and potential.capacity modulate energy.capacity within matter.substance, conditioned on state.condition and what is usual.common, producing a deviation marked by heightened energy load. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 19, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
