1. A method for execution by a computing device, the method comprises:
determining a set of identigens for each query word of a query to produce a plurality of sets of identigens, wherein each identigen of the plurality of sets of identigens includes a meaning identifier, an instance identifier, and a time reference, wherein each meaning identifier associated with a particular set of identigens of the plurality of sets of identigens represents a different meaning of one or more different meanings of a corresponding word of the query, wherein each time reference provides time information when a corresponding different meaning of the one or more different meanings is valid, wherein a set of identigens of the plurality of sets of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a query word of the query, wherein a first set of identigens of the plurality of sets of identigens is produced for a first query word of the query, wherein each identigen of the first set of identigens represents a different meaning of the first query word;
detecting, based on identigen pairing rules of a knowledge database, that at least two identigens of the first set of identigens pairs with at least one corresponding sequentially adjacent identigen of another set of identigens of the plurality of sets of identigens in accordance with the identigen pairing rules, wherein the identigen pairing rules includes identifiers of the sequentially adjacent identigens for known valid combinations of pairs of sequentially adjacent identigens;
generating a representation of the at least two identigens of the first set of identigens and the at least one corresponding sequentially adjacent identigen of the other set of identigens, wherein the representation includes one or more of text, audio, video and graphics;
obtaining a first identigen selection for the first query word from the first set of identigens based on a response to the representation of the at least two identigens of the first set of identigens and the at least one corresponding sequentially adjacent identigen of the other set of identigens, wherein the first identigen selection corresponds to a selected identigen of the first set of identigens having a selected meaning of the one or more different meanings of the first query word;
interpreting, in accordance with the identigen pairing rules of the knowledge database and based on the first identigen selection, the plurality of sets of identigens to produce a query entigen group, wherein the query entigen group represents a most likely meaning interpretation of the query, wherein a first entigen of the query entigen group corresponds to the first identigen selection for the first set of identigens, wherein each remaining entigen of the query entigen group corresponds to a selected identigen of a remaining set identigens having a selected meaning of one or more different meanings of a remaining query word, wherein each selected identigen favorably pairs with at least one corresponding sequentially adjacent identigen of another set of identigens of the plurality of sets of identigens in accordance with the identigen pairing rules, wherein each entigen of the query entigen group represents a corresponding single conceivable and perceivable thing in space and time that is independent of language, wherein the knowledge database includes a multitude of entigen groups associated with a multitude of topics, wherein the multitude of topics includes a topic of the query, wherein each entigen group of the multitude of entigen groups includes a corresponding plurality of entigens and one or more entigen relationships between at least some of the corresponding plurality of entigens; and
accessing the knowledge database utilizing the query entigen group to produce a response entigen group.
