a type of something that is different from another type of the same thing

Version (noun) means: a type of something that is different from another type of the same thing. It emerges from type, difference: type and different together are a thing that is a specific type. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 5, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
