A '''relative term''', also called a '''rhema''' or a '''rheme''', is a logical term that requires reference to any number of other objects, called the ''[[correlate]]s'' of the term, in order to [[denotation|denote]] a definite object, called the ''[[relate]]'' (pronounced with the accent on the first syllable) of the relative term in question. A relative term is typically expressed in ordinary language by means of a phrase with explicit or implicit blanks, for example, ''lover of __'', or ''giver of __ to __''.
