There is the verb type defined in the standard library; unfortunately, it
cannot handle unnamed entities (primitives),

   _5[\ type@:;:'ARGV type define on base a. = / @ ..'
┌────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┬────────────┐
│noun        │verb        │adverb      │conjunction │not defined │
├────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┼────────────┤
│invalid name│invalid name│invalid name│invalid name│invalid name│
└────────────┴────────────┴────────────┴────────────┴────────────┘
