Sensations label perceptions {labeling and sensations}, to provide meaning for perceptions. For example, the color red is a label for a feature, and "red" and "green" name features. Using a symbol, label, index, reference, or name defines a category, feature, or variable type. Applying a label groups objects, events, relations, or ideas. Indexing helps memory and recall.
Label meaning can depend on relation to body parts. Many means more than number of fingers. Large means larger than body. Right means nearer to right arm than left arm. Up means nearer to head than feet. Complex labels, such as elephant or victory, combine simple labels.
