01 First Order/Carrier Mechanics/Structural Carrier

Structural Carrier

Structural carrier names the class of primitive carriers that carry relation into later structural compounds through small relation-words. Where operation carriers make any condition readable across the system, structural carriers transmit specific relational roles — placement, accompaniment, conjunction, contrast, refusal, interruption, presentation, separation, and direction — into language and downstream compounds. A structural carrier does not make structure; it preserves and transmits relations already available to read.

Trace

Read

Structural carrier becomes recognisable where a small relation-word can be shown to carry a specific relational role into a later compound without becoming an order root itself.
