What is HYPO? I'm not confident with using too many similar 4-letter abbreviations in the names of categories in Glottopedia. In Linguipedia we hat "Bibliographical reference" instead of "BIB" (in Glottopedia). That was ok, everyone knew what it stands for. But now here in Glottopedia we have LING, LANG, ... and so on. What are HYPO and LIRE, anyway... ? --[[User:Sven Siegmund|Sven Siegmund]] 20:41, 10 July 2007 (CEST) | What is HYPO?

What is HYPO? I'm not confident with using too many similar 4-letter abbreviations in the names of categories in Glottopedia.

- The idea is that the article types (i.e. the major classes of articles, which all have rather different properties) are described by abbreviated categories, somewhat like the article languages, which also have abbreviated category names (En, De, etc.). LIRE and LING are identical -- the former should be changed to the latter. HYPO has now been explained. --Haspelmath 22:08, 11 July 2007 (CEST)
