In order to deal with this problem in a systematic way, different levels of semantic analysis are distinguished in the PHLIQAI program.

The levels differ in that each of them assumes different semantic primitives.", |

The formal language used at this level is therefore called the Data Base Language (DBL). Between EFL and DBL, several other levels of meaning representation are used as intermediary steps. Because of the space limitations imposed on the present paper, I am forced to evoke a somewhat misleading picture of the PHLIQA set-up, by ignoring these intermediate levels.", |

If we allow the full generality of that approach, however, it leads to the use of algorithms which are not efficient and which are not guaranteed to terminate. An alternative formulation, which is attractive because it can easily be implemented by effective procedures, is one in terms of translation rules. This is the approach adopted in the PHLIQAI system.

Though in DBL terms one cannot talk about employees, one can talk about objects which stand in a one-to-one correspondence to the employees: the pairs consisting of a department d and a positive integer i such that i is not larger than than the value of #E~ for d. Entities which have a one-to-one correspondence with these pairs, and are disjoint with the extensions of all other semantic types, may be used as \"proxies\" for employees. Thus, we may define the following translation: EMPLOYEES ~ U(for: DEPTS, apply: ( is a functionwhich establishes a oneem -to-one correspondence between its domain and its range (its range is disjoint with all other semantic types); rid is the inverse of id ; INTS is a emp function which assigns to any integer i the set of integers j such that 0<j~i.", |

Nevertheless, (7) can be given a definite answer on the basis of the data base of section IlL The method as described so far hasaproblem with this example: although the answer to (7) is determined by the data base, the question as formulated refers to entities which are not represented in the data base, cannot be constructed out of such entities, and do not stand in a one-to-one correspondence with entities which can be so constructed. In order to be able to construct a DBL translation of (7) by means of local substitution rules of the kind previously illustrated, we need an extended version of DBL, which we will call DBL*, containing the same constants as DBL plus a constant NONEMPS, denoting the set of persons who are not employees. Now, local translation rules for the EFL-to-DBL* translation may be specified. Application of these translation rules to the EFL representation of (7) yields a DBL* expression containing the unevaluable constant NONEMPS.
