Could you please someone enlighten us on the origin and use of this unique
(??) English meaning of the term 'function' ? Does it simply have to do
with many members of a society getting together (elements 'assembled',
i.e. designed) to make an event (a non-material) artefact happen? Is this
interpretation correct? Are there other nuances?
