[open-linguistics] Metrics in linguistics

Fri May 6 13:10:12 UTC 2016

Dear Folks
As a person whose expertise is out of linguistics I was curious whether there are some kinds of metrics in linguistics by which one might be able to measure and then compare different languages in view point of structure, composition, configuration and complexity.
I would appreciate it if anyone might suggest paper or any reading sources on this matter.

Kind regards
