For me, all objects have two parts: bulk and boundary. bulk can be construed as the ‘noun’ ness of it, the boundary can be construed as the “verbness” and “adjectiveness” of an object.
Sure, here are some examples of one-liners with a context and “bulk” and “boundary” notions:
- Person, character, appearance
- Building, structure, design
- Tree, trunk, branches
- Car, engine, body
- Book, content, cover
- City, infrastructure, skyline
- Mountain, rock, snow
- Ocean, water, waves
- River, flow, banks
- Food, ingredients, presentation
- Music, melody, harmony
- Painting, brushstrokes, frame
- Sport, rules, equipment
- Movie, plot, special effects
- Event, schedule, decorations
- Country, government, borders
- Animal, behavior, habitat
- Planet, atmosphere, terrain
- Galaxy, stars, dust
- Universe, matter, energy
- Idea, concept, expression
- Theory, hypothesis, evidence
- Religion, doctrine, rituals
- Culture, values, traditions
- Language, grammar, vocabulary
