Definition / description
Qualitative values are stipulated within intervals across a descending hierarchy/cascade of levels
Stipulation is intentional, and involves selection and specification
When ask "What do you mean by beauty?" -- a person can respond by defining their meaning of beauty. This might be considered rather advanced, bu this is how people actually do it. They define beaty according to their values, which they stipulate (or assert or affirm, as a free-will personal choice)
To affirm, to state, to specify, to select
The word follows the famous Humpty-Dumpty theory of meaning, as where he states that "words mean what I want them to mean, nothing more, nothing less"
The "nothing more, nothing less" show the value coefficient in the meaning
