it is not me who 've minted the predicate. If you want to know, just follow the

I think you mix something up. Don't put semantics into URIs!
every predicate is a URI and thus has to follow the URI conventions[1], and
that's it. From that, it is totally arbitrary and semantic agnostic. A label,
on the other hand, would be something like skos:prefLabel where you get the
natural language label (as values of skos:prefLabel predicate). This can be
used for the presentation level of your app. See [2] for an example, 1. as an
arbitrary URI and 2. look at the skos:prefLabel where you find the preferred
labels for this URI in different languages.

While URIs are semantically agnostic I personally find it convenient to have
something speaking like dct:title in comparison to isbd:P1006 . And I would
prefer english even if its not my native language, because English is todays
lingua franca.

hope this helps,
