You're welcome.
Interesting stuff.
Note from asker:
Thanks Barend! Also, together with David's wikipedia link above, I managed to solve another current question I had, namely, that of: "zinssamenhang", which seems to be, "unity of meaning". So we have: zinssamenhang unity of meaning, and , zijnssamenhang unity of being.
"Bij Husserl is het menselijk Ik met zijn bewustzijnsleven een binnen zichzelf besloten zijnssamenhang, waar niets binnen kan dringen en waar niets uit kan ontwijken." = "For Husserl, the conscious human “I” is a self-contained unity of being, which nothing can penetrate and out of which nothing can escape.
Peer comment(s):
agree philgoddard : Perfect! A self-contained unit(y) of being, perhaps.

Thank you, Suzan. Yes, this is a different story from "mouse monoclonal primary antibody" to name but one. :-)
