ThinkingOutLoud.DonaldNoyes.20090226 20100827 ---- Within the class of Compound words and Simple words is found a set of words which refer to Collections. These I call CollectionWords (to make a WikiWord of it and to express it as a C''''''ollectionWord itself, I add the final "s" which I call the F''''''inalSchar. I am thinking that there are many S''''''impleWords and C''''''ompoundWords (notice again the F''''''inalSchar) which can be further separated and grouped so as to fall in a G''''''roupWithCommonCharacteristics. They fall under several types: * S''''''impleWords which indicate a collection through their meaning (usually as a type) ** animal ** plant ** meeting ** reunion ** crowd ** audience ** group ** screened (differentiated)(as those who have passed some fitness tests or have documents indicating such (membership, credit-worthy, passed through detection devices, etc.)) * S''''''impleWords for C''''''ollectionContainers ** collection ** array ** tuple ** list ** hash ** database ** library ** numbes ** type * S''''''impleWords with an added F''''''inalSchar (usually but not always a noun). ** friends ** programmers ** actions ** procedures ** contents * C''''''ompoundWords ** dashed-words (S''''''impleWords separated by a "-" ** O''''''therWords which are delimited by special characters ** What we here call WikiWords [type U''''''pperCaseChar followed by any number of type L''''''owerCaseChar followed by the same again and perhaps again and again) ** H''''''yperWords (Words which have a S''''''pecialAppearance (underlined, tinted, or both) and have an E''''''mbeddedHyperlink) ** Other Special C''''''ompoundContructionWords which include numbers and other characters *** Year2000Problems *** CalendarYear2009 *** Dated20090226 *** 20090226Receipts *** InformationIntersection *** C''''''ellContent ---- See also * C''''''ollectionsOfObjects * C''''''ollectionTypes * C''''''ollectionContainers * NamedCollection * WordsThatDefine ---- * CategoryCollections
