Family Resemblance
Family resemblance stands for the notion that members of a category (e.g., all dogs, or all games) resemble each other.
In general, family resemblance relies on some number of features shared by any group of category members, even though these features may not be shared by all members of the category.
Therefore, the basis for family resemblance may shift from one subset of the category to another.
