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 CollectionWord itself, I add the final "s" which I call the FinalSchar.

I am thinking that there are many SimpleWords and CompoundWords (notice again the FinalSchar) which can be further separated and grouped so as to fall in a GroupWithCommonCharacteristics.

They fall under several types:
  • SimpleWords 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.))
  • SimpleWords for CollectionContainers
    • collection
    • array
    • tuple
    • list
    • hash
    • database
    • library
    • numbes
    • type
  • SimpleWords with an added FinalSchar (usually but not always a noun).
    • friends
    • programmers
    • actions
    • procedures
    • contents
  • CompoundWords
    • dashed-words (SimpleWords separated by a "-"
    • OtherWords which are delimited by special characters
    • What we here call WikiWords [type UpperCaseChar followed by any number of type LowerCaseChar followed by the same again and perhaps again and again)
    • HyperWords (Words which have a SpecialAppearance (underlined, tinted, or both) and have an EmbeddedHyperlink)
    • Other Special CompoundContructionWords which include numbers and other characters
