Hello, I would like to extend my previous message [1] on n-ary relations, with another remark/option. Instead of using sub-properties to reify the roles of the n-ary property one could also use them to bear an additional qualification. For instance, to say that a person (John) has a temperature on 38 degree Celsius and increasing, one could also use the following representation: ex:hasATemperatureOf rdf:type rdf:Property ex:hasADecreasingTemperatureOf rdfs:subPropertyOf ex:hasATemperatureOf ex:hasAnIncreasingTemperatureOf rdfs:subPropertyOf ex:hasATemperatureOf ex:hasAStableTemperatureOf rdfs:subPropertyOf ex:hasATemperatureOf #John ex:hasAnIncreasingTemperatureOf "38D.C."
