    Selected without a specific reason or rule; picked randomly or based on personal choice rather than necessity.
    Construction(in linguistics)
    A specific grammatical or linguistic structure—the particular way words are put together to form a phrase or sentence.
    Demonstrable(as used in logic)
    Able to be proven or shown to be true through logical reasoning or evidence.
