Often one's level of interest in a genre is ''purely generic''.  When the relevant genre is regarded as an indexed family of dyadic relations, ''G'' = {''G''<sub>''j''</sub>}, then this generic interest is tantamount to having one's concern rest with the union of all the dyadic relations in the genre.

At other times explicit mention needs to be made of the interpretive perspective or individual dyadic relation (IDR) that links two objects.  To indicate that a triple consisting of an OM j and two objects x and y belongs to the standing relation of the OG, ‹j, x, y› ? :<, or equally, to indicate that a triple consisting of an OM j and two objects y and x belongs to the propping relation of the OG, ‹j, y, x› ? :>, all of the following notations are equivalent:
