UNL Philosophy & Specs
The UNL in its essence is a digital language with lexical, syntactic and semantic features as human languages. The Specs define the structure and the linguistic elements of the UNL.
UNL Resources
UNL Resources are the natural language and knowledge resources (dictionaries, ontologies, knowledge bases, translation memories, grammars, etc) necessary to translate natural languages into UNL and from UNL into natural languages. These resources will be also used in search, and other applications.
UNL Engines & Tools
UNL engines and tools are programming software developed to run translation, search, etc. processes and to assist linguists in producing UNL resources. They differ from UNL applications in that they are not tailored to non-specialists and require expertise in UNL.
UNL Applications
UNL applications are application software based in the UNL technology that allow end users to accomplish natural language tasks, such as translating, summarizing, retrieving or extracting information. They differ from UNL tools in that they do not require any expertise or even knowledge on UNL from their users.
UNL World
UNL World is the overall strategy for disseminating the knowledge on UNL and for UNL evangelization.
