Attribute exploration has been investigated in several studies, with particular emphasis on the algorithmic aspects of this knowledge acquisition method. In its basic version the method itself is rather simple and transparent. But when background knowledge and partially described counter-examples are admitted, it gets more difficult. Here we discuss this case in an abstract, somewhat "axiomatic" setting, providing a terminology that clarifies the abstract strategy of the method rather than its algorithmic implementation.
