6. 6 An Object in Possible World

7. 7 Internal and External View of an Object

8. 8 Internal semantics of object is equal to semantic sum of all chains of semantic relations that start and finish on the shell of this object and pass inside it: Internal Semantics of an Object

9. 9 External Semantics of an Object External semantics of object is equal to internal semantics of the World if consider this object as an Atom in this World (i.e. after removing internal structure of the object from the World):

10. 10 External and internal semantics of any object as evolutionary knowledge are equivalent to each other in a limit. The Law of Semantic Balance
