<em>Description</em></a></p><hr /><br /><b>Descripción</b><br
/><p> PHOIBLE Online is a repository of cross-linguistic phonological
inventory data, which have been extracted from source documents and
tertiary databases, and compiled into a single searchable convenience
sample. The 2014 edition includes 2155 inventories that contain 2160
segment types found in 1672 distinct languages.<br /><br />A
bibliographic record is provided for each source document; note that
some languages in PHOIBLE have multiple entries based on distinct
sources that disagree about the number and/or identity of that
language’s phonemes.<br /><br />Two principles guide the development
of PHOIBLE, though it has proved challenging both theoretically and
technologically to abide by them:<br />- Be faithful to the language
description in the source document (now often called ‘doculect’,
for reasons indicated above).<br />- Encode all character data in a
consistent representation in Unicode IPA.<br /><br />In addition to
phoneme inventories, PHOIBLE includes distinctive feature data for
every phoneme in every language. The feature system used was created
by the PHOIBLE developers to be descriptively adequate
cross-linguistically. In other words, if two phonemes differ in their
graphemic representation, then they necessarily differ in their
featural representation as well (regardless of whether those two
phonemes coexist in any known doculect). The feature system is loosely
based on the feature system in Hayes 2009 with some additions drawn
from Moisik & Esling 2011.<br /><br />However, the final feature
system goes beyond both of these sources, and is potentially subject
to change as new languages are added in subsequent editions of
PHOIBLE.<br /><br />From Linguist List: <a
