Which of the following is indicated by the term 'intangible'?

  1. Physical

  2. Definable

  3. Immaterial

  4. Conventional

The correct answer is: Immaterial

The term 'intangible' refers to something that cannot be touched or physically measured; it is immaterial in nature. This concept often applies to assets or qualities that do not have a physical presence, such as intellectual property, goodwill, or emotional states. In various contexts, intangible aspects can include personal attributes like trustworthiness, reputation, or creativity, which are important yet cannot be quantified in a traditional sense. Understanding this term is crucial, as it highlights the importance of non-physical traits that play a significant role in various fields, including finance, business, and social interactions. The other choices do not capture the essence of 'intangible' as they refer to different characteristics that imply either physical presence or conventional standards.
