to make a new thing that was not here before

Create (verb) means: to make a new thing that was not here before. It emerges from matter, energy, make, new: Energy moves matter in space so that parts come together into a persistent structure in a pattern that was not present before. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 5, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
