Type [classification_identity]
This frame has to do with nouns denoting types of entities. The Subtype refers to a collection of members of a more general Category which have certain defining characteristics; alternatively, the Subtype refers only to the type itself, i.e. a more restrictive set of characteristics than those of the more general Category. The properties of the items that are included in the collection may be specified by the Item_property. Sometimes the Subtypes themselves are described by some Type_property.

Peripheral Frame Elements (2)
| Frame element | Definition | Semantic type | Constraint |
|---|---|---|---|
| Item_property |
A property of the members of the Category that helps identify (directly or indirectly) the particular set of members that are referred to by the Subtype.
He had a Bon Jovi kind of guitar. |
— | — |
| Type_property |
A property of the Subtype itself rather than the members of the Category.
I tried a new type of hair gel yesterday. Many Type_property adjectives (e.g. new, rare, traditional, modern, strange) make explicit that the type under discussion is just one of the types in the more general Category. Adjectives that denote properties of items in the category should be tagged Item_property. |
