Definition
A Trajon is a unit of sustained attention carrying meaning through time.
It describes not merely how long attention lasts, but how strongly a signal remains coherent, present, and capable of influencing a semantic field.
Why the Word Exists
Existing units measure time, energy, information, or physical force, but none describe the persistence and gravitational effect of meaning.
Trajon was created to name that missing relationship: attention sustained long enough for meaning to acquire weight.
Word Formation
The word derives from trajanje — duration or persistence.
The suffix gives the concept the character of a discrete unit: something that can be observed, compared, accumulated, transferred, or lost.
Function in MonkOS
Trajon connects attention, duration, semantic density, and influence.
It allows MonkOS to distinguish between a signal that briefly appears and one that remains coherent enough to organize perception, memory, identity, or action.
