Exformation is a term coined by the Danish computer scientist and philosopher Peter Gärdenfors in the context of the philosophy of information. It refers to the information that is not included when a certain message is transmitted, essentially serving as the "background knowledge" or context necessary for the recipient to understand the message fully. In other words, exformation is the implicit information that is assumed or requires shared understanding between the communicator and the audience.
