Answer: holophrase

Explanation: holophrase is the use of one word to express a whole phrase or concept.it is the prelinguistic usage of single word to express a complex idea or concept. When a single word is used to express a whole idea or complex concept, it is said to be an holophrase. For example using the word "more" to mean "I want another cookie" or using the word healthy may mean i need to be healthy.
