# Definition:Weakly Locally Connected at Point/Definition 2

## Definition

Let $T = \struct {S, \tau}$ be a topological space.

Let $x \in S$.

The space $T$ is weakly locally connected at $x$ if and only if every open neighborhood $U$ of $x$ contains an open neighborhood $V$ of $x$ such that every two points of $V$ lie in some connected subset of $U$.

## Also known as

If $T$ is weakly locally connected at $x$, it is also said to be connected im kleinen at $x$.

Some sources refer to a space which is weakly locally connected at $x$ as locally connected at $x$.
