Noema

The word noema (plural: noemata) derives from the Greek word νόημα meaning "mental object".[1] The philosopher Edmund Husserl used noema as a technical term in phenomenology to stand for the object or content of a thought, judgement, or perception, but its precise meaning in his work has remained a matter of controversy.
