No knowledge/investigation can be made on a thing that cannot be thought as "part, whole, equivalence, uniqueness, limit, link, influence, sensation, origin, derivative, rule, condition, and fulfillment."

I like to remove the "slash" between knowledge and investigation.
Can I use the term "or" instead of "slash"?

No knowledge or investigation can be made on a thing that cannot be thought as "part, whole, equivalence, uniqueness, limit, link, influence, sensation, origin, derivative, rule, condition, and fulfillment."

Yes... 'or' can effectively replace the 'slash'...... however, I prefer the active voice construction, namely, we can not know or investigate anything that cannot be thought or viewed as part, whole, equivalence ........................................

Wonder why you chose to place it here in philosophy!! Your question in my view relates to the English language.

There may not be knowledge of, nor an investigation for a thing that has not substance as part, whole, equivalence, uniqueness, limit, link, influence, sensation, origin, derivative, rule, condition, and fulfillment.

A thought can not be if not having one of these in its essential properties: part, whole, equivalence, uniqueness, limit, link, influence, sensation, origin, derivative, rule, condition, and fulfillment."
