Plural of existent; things or beings that exist; entities that have reality or presence.
From existent (something that exists, from Latin existens) with regular plural -s. The term is primarily philosophical, used to refer to any entity that has being or reality.
Philosophers use existents to talk about all the different things that are real—not just people, but atoms, thoughts, numbers, and stars. It's a philosophical way of saying 'everything that exists belongs to the class of existents!'
