Holophrastic indeterminacy refers to a linguistic phenomenon where a single word or phrase can express a range of meanings or interpretations, often depending on the context in which it is used. The term "holophrastic" derives from "holophrase," which is a word or phrase that can represent a complete idea or thought, similar to how a single word can serve as a complete sentence in certain languages or contexts.
