Abstract

The article deals with the language description transfer from the encyclopaedic edition «Languages of the World» to the «Languages of the World» database web version. The feature base structure and dependencies within different sections are analysed, along with the possible ways of terminology unification. The article may be of interest to specialists in linguistic typology, data formalisation and development of linguistic databases.
