nonspecific referent (inf)
a.k.a. (semantically) nonspecific (indefinite) referent
the information status of a referent whose identity cannot be known to the speaker and the hearer because the referent is only type identifiable. Example: in A student came to my office, the hearer does not know the identity of the student, and hence that referent is nonspecific. (Section 3.5)
