clause/Phrase(-atom) type

The linguistic kind of objects.

This feature is present on objects of type clause(_atom), phrase(_atom).

Clause (atom)

For clause-like objects the values provide a classification on the basis of the constituents of the clause. This feature is also known as clause (atom) type.

Note

I prefer a more informative definition.

Explain why is this a useful feature? Examples needed.
