The pairing of a URI denoting a data type having both a lexical

the lexical space (a lexical form).

rdf:type pairs a literal with a data type URI
rdf:range suggests a pairing of a literal property value with
a data type URI
rdfs:subClassOf a relation between two data types asserting that
the value space of the subordinate type is a perfect
subset of the value space of the superordinate type
(no relation between lexical spaces is asserted)
rdfs:subPropertyOf a relation between properties from which one may
infer that the data type defined as the range for
the subordinate property has a subClassOf relation
to the data type defined as the range for the
superordinate property

I'm not sure how to answer this one, other than say that
examples should employ consistent and explicit means to
define the pairing between lexical form and data type.
> (4) any assumptions about this
> 'reserved' RDF(S) vocabulary that are assumed by the proposal
I think this is covered in the answer to #2 above.
