Ontological: "Ontological" refers to questions about what actually exists or is real. It's concerned with the fundamental nature of being—asking "What kinds of things are there?" rather than "How do we know about them?" For example, an ontological question might be whether numbers, ideas, or God actually exist as real things, or if they're just human inventions.
Supernatural beings(the type of subjects being discussed in the statement): Entities or creatures that exist outside or beyond the natural physical world, like spirits, gods, or demons.
analogical extension(The primary basis for argumentation in Chinese dialectics): A method of reasoning in which assertions are accepted or rejected by deeming things to be of the same kind or not
category(Aristotelian usage as discussed in the passage): A predicate, per Aristotle's usage; the term 'predicate' can refer to realities, concepts, or linguistic terms.
