DIA
  
  The DIA are constructs of DA to form meaningful statements.  
  Definition  
  More than one DIA may be grouped to form either an argument or
a group of DIA's.		  
 

An argument is when more than 3 but less than 92 DIA are associated to form an introduction, an argument (one or more statements) and a conclusion whereby the association of DIA forms an argument. An argument shall be known as an IDEA.

 

  
  Structure of DIA  
  In UCADIA, the structure of DIA formed through the combination of DA, tensors and/or Relator and properties results in a rich variety of potential DIA structures.  
  The combination of these basic elements form patterns of sentence construct that are defined by the core elements used to create the structure and its shape. There are essentially 24 types of DIA structures possible within UCADIA:  
 
Class Category Type
Linear Simple Linear
(less than 4 DA)		 DA
Tensor
Relator
Mix
Complex Linear
(more than 4 DA)		 DA
Matrix Simple Matrix
(less than 9DA)		 DA-Cross
DA-star
DA-tri
DA-dual
Tensor-Cross
Tensor-star
Tensor-tri
Tensor-dual
   
   
   
DA-level
Complex Matrix
(more than 9 DA)		 DA  
Tensor  
Relator  
Relator  
 
  Basic shapes  
  The two basic shapes of DIA (linear, matrix) are physical shapes, each denoting a base meaning and approach to reading DIA.

  Matrix
