Virtual
The term virtual is a concept applied in many fields with somewhat differing connotations, and also, differing denotations. Colloquially, 'virtual' has a similar meaning to '-' or 'pseudo-' (prefixes which themselves have quite different meanings), meaning something that is almost something else, particularly when used in the adverbial form e.g., "He's virtually [almost] my boyfriend". The term recently has been defined philosophically as, that which is not real, but may display the full qualities of the real.
