Subspaces and spanning sets it is time to study vector spaces more carefully and answer some fundamental questions. To ad d vectors in r5, add them a component at a time. In special relativity, as you said, you can uniquely associate a point in spacetime with a vector, and so it sort of makes sense to add two such vectors, but in curved spacetime, points are not associated with vectors. In this vector space there is the notion of the length of a vector x, usually called the norm. A vector space with an inner product is an inner product space.
