Not a native english speaker here, could someone explain what exactly "reified" means in this context? I tried searching online but it only led to further my confusion!
- thristian 9y ago"reified" comes from the Latin "res" meaning "thing". It means "to make an abstract idea or concept into a real thing". For example, the Turing Machine model of computation is reified in the form of actual computers.
