Dear All,

Whereas the question of asymmetry has been reformulated for P130, the respective corrections have not been carried out for P139:


*P130 shows features of (features are also found on)*

Domain:

E70 <#_toc8408> Thing

Range:

E70 <#_toc8408> Thing

Superproperty of:

E33 <#_toc7918> Linguistic Object. P73 <#_toc10036>i is translation of: E33 <#_toc7918> Linguistic Object

E18 <#_toc7650> Physical Thing. P128 <#_toc10784> carries (is carried by): E90 <#_toc8683> Symbolic Object

Quantification:

many to many (0,n:0,n)

Scope note:

This property generalises the notions of "copy of" and "similar to" into *a directed relationship*, where the domain expresses the derivative or influenced item and the range the source or influencing item, i*f such a direction can be established*. The property can also be used to express similarity in cases that can be stated between two objects only, without historical knowledge about its reasons. The property expresses *a symmetric relationship* in case no direction of influence can be established either from evidence on the item itself or from historical knowledge. This holds in particular for siblings of a derivation process from a common source or non-causal cultural parallels, such as some weaving patterns.

*BUT!*


**

P139 has alternative form

Domain:

E41 <#_toc8039> Appellation

Range:

E41 <#_toc8039>Appellation

Quantification:

many to many (0,n:0,n)

Scope note:

This property associates an instance of E41 Appellation with another instance of E41 Appellation that constitutes a derivative or variant of the former and that may also be used for identifying items identified by the former, in suitable contexts, independent from the particular item to be identified. This property should not be confused with additional variants of names used characteristically for a single, particular item, such as individual nicknames. It is *an asymmetric relationship*, where the range expresses the derivative, *if such a direction can be established*. Otherwise, the*relationship is symmetric*. The relationship is not transitive.

AND:

P139(x,y) ⇒P139(y,x)  ...which is normally wrong

¬P139(x,x)   which is not in the scope note.

To be checked, if this had been resolved but editing forgotten!

Best,

Martin
