Intersubjectivity, a term originally coined by the

philosopher Edmund Husserl (1859–1938), is most


simply stated as the interchange of thoughts and
feelings, both conscious and unconscious, between
two persons or “subjects,” as facilitated by empathy.

A basic human example of intersubjectivity is having


a shared, common agreement in the definition of
an object. So most people would experience
intersubjectivity when asked to picture an apple- the
definition of an apple would be the same.

A person (plural people or persons) is a being that has


certain capacities or attributes such as reason,
morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and
being a part of a culturally established form of social
relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or
legal responsibility.
