“Our understanding thus acquires a kind of negative extension, that is, it is not limited by sensibility, but, on the contrary, it limits sensibility, by calling things in themselves (not considered as appearances) noumena.”


~ From Critique of Pure Reason by Immanuel Kant

Kant made a distinction between the world in itself (the noumena world) and the world of our experience (the phenomenal world).


Noumenon: what is.

A phenomenon is that which is observed. A noumenon is that which is.


“Noumena” is plural, with “Noumenon” as the corresponding singular and  the expression “noumenal world” for the world of noumena.


This is the  world undistorted by human ideas and concepts.
