Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to record who a name is used TOWARD — the social scope of a gmeow:NameUsage, an agent, group/family, or locale community.

Avoid when

• Avoid conflating audience (who the name is used toward) with gmeow:usageAuthority / gmeow:accordingTo (who ASSERTS the usage claim) — the social scope and the standpoint frame are orthogonal axes; use gmeow:usageRelationshipScope when the scope is exactly one standing relationship.

How to use

• Add one or more gmeow:usageAudience entities to a NameUsage (non-functional); for a single tie, prefer gmeow:usageRelationshipScope, and keep the standpoint on gmeow:usageAuthority / gmeow:accordingTo.

Examples

• ex:usageFamily gmeow:usageAudience ex:family.
