- "Surface" corresponds to any mention of a surface (real or not real) in the context of the text.
- Homonyms of surfaces that are not surfaces should not be detected as "Surface" (if the context allows disambiguation).
- TextCases[…,"Surface""Interpretation"] attempts to return entities of type "Surface", as Interpreter["Surface"] does.
- Any specific "Surface" entity such as
can also be used as a content type in TextCases, TextPosition and TextContents.
