Designing a controlled natural language for the representation of legal norms
نویسندگان
چکیده
Controlled Legal German (CLG) is a controlled natural language being developed for the representation of legal norms contained in Swiss statutes and regulations. This paper discusses the main design requirements CLG faces and the strategies it applies to meet them. CLG aims at providing representations for legal norms that are both formal and can be easily understood and verified by legal experts. It must combine an unambiguous semantics based on FOL and deontic concepts with close syntactic proximity to conventional legal language.

متن کاملDynamic Semantics at Work
In this case study we show how an unambiguous semantic representation can be constructed dynamically in left-to-right order while a text is written in PENG, a controlled natural language designed for knowledge representation. PENG can be used in contexts where precise texts (e.g. software specifications, axioms for formal ontologies, legal documents) need to be composed. Texts written in PENG l...
