To quote from the Tarka Samgraha, that classifies categories as 
[1]substance, [2]quality, [3]action, [4]generality, [5]particularity, 
[6]inherence, and [7]negation:

[4]Classification of Genarality:
Generality is of two kinds: the more comprehensive and the less 
comprehensive

[5]Particularities:
But, particularities abiding in eternal substances are innumerable indeed.

Our ancient epistemology is partly based on `atomistic pluralism' - the 
core behind [4] and [5] quoted above.  Have you ordered English names 
and words this way - more comprehensive to the less comprehensive? 
 Please do share your work if you have ordered names or words this way.

Ramanraj.
