In that same dictionary entry it says
Copulas may also be used indirectly, with the name or names specified as a
character or
boxed list. If y is the expression to the right of the copula, then a single
name is
assigned y , otherwise each name is assigned >y if y is an atom, otherwise the
i-th name
is assigned >i{y . If the character list begins with ` then gerund referents
are evoked.
The 'gerund referents' are atomic representations, which can define
any part of speech.
