- Motivation
The informations given in the example are/can be currently specified with instance of (P31). I think a more specific property would make things clearer. Pamputt (talk) 02:08, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
- Discussion
Support I support a specific property for this. I don't know enough about this topic to be sure this is the right name, etc but something like this seems useful. ArthurPSmith (talk) 14:49, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

- Are there other databases that already model the same relationship? If so, what word do they use for it? Presently the description doesn't really add value. Maybe you can write the description in a way that doesn't simply repeat the word typology but explains it meaning? ChristianKl (talk) 23:30, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
- I changed the description using the one from the English Wiktionary. I hope it is clearer. Pamputt (talk) 05:53, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
- How about this based on EN Wikipedia: "classification of languages according to their structural and functional features", with alias "linguistic typology"? - PKM (talk) 01:41, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
- Looks good to me. Pamputt (talk) 05:41, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
