# Labels

Now:

|shape|s-label|property|p-label|....|
|----|----|----|----|----|
|book|Book|
|||dct:date|Date|

Using one label element:

a. two columns, both called label (alternatively, label column is repeatable)

|shape|label|property|label|....|
|----|----|----|----|----|
|book|Book|
|||dct:date|Date|

b. one label column

|shape|label|property|...|....|
|----|----|----|----|----|
|book|Book|
||Date|dct:date||

or

|shape|property|label|....|
|----|----|----|----|----|
|book||Book
||dct:date|Date|

With a) you have the same number of columns, they just have different headers. With b) you have only one label column, and it is the label for the shape on the shape row or the property on the property row. This means that the two row types must be distinct.
