By the end of the 20th century the complex-systemic methodology and determinant analysis have been elaborated by the RUDN Prof. G.P. Mel’nikov who proposed a new wholly-systemic classification of languages, so to say, “a typology of typologies”. In its core, it’s the complex content-structural typology of languages based on systemology and determinant analysis. Its main notion is the language determinant developing as the unity of the two determinants ‒ exterior (outer) and interior (inner) ones. The nature of language and linguistic type demanded a new methodology, or systemology, integrating the triple complex of principles, namely, of material substrate, dimension and triads. The distinctive feature of the systemological methodology is cohesiveness and continuity of its criteria, as well as the support of some other synthesizing approaches. The definition area of systemology is determined by the continuous derivability of notions and objectivity of the minimum of necessary and sufficient number of initial notions and terms which are to explain both the mechanisms and efficiency of a language as a separate object of scientific research.
