Here are a few lines from an RDF document:
The first line of this RDF document is an XML declaration. Following this XML declaration is the root element of the RDF document: <rdf:RDF>.
The xmlns:rdf namespace specifies that elements with the rdf prefix come from the namespace "http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#".
The xmlns:cd namespace specifies that elements with the cd prefix come from the namespace "http://www.recshop.fake/cd#".
The <rdf:Description> element contains a description of the resource identified by the rdf:about attribute.
Elements such as <cd:artist>, <cd:country>, <cd:company>, etc., are properties of this resource.
RDF Online Validator
W3C's RDF Validation Service is very helpful when you are learning RDF. Here you can experiment with RDF files.
The RDF online validator parses your RDF document, checks its syntax, and generates tabular and graphical views for your RDF document.
Copy and paste the following example into W3C's RDF Validator:
