Definite clause grammar
MEANS OF EXPRESSING GRAMMATICAL RELATIONSHIPS
Definite clause grammars; Context-sensitive definite clause grammars
A definite clause grammar (DCG) is a way of expressing grammar, either for natural or formal languages, in a logic programming language such as Prolog. It is closely related to the concept of attribute grammars / affix grammars from which Prolog was originally developed.
Independent clause
GRAMMATICAL CLAUSE THAT CAN BE A SENTENCE ON ITS OWN
Independent clauses; Main clause; Matrix clause; Principal clause; Main proposition
An independent clause (or main clause) is a clause that can stand by itself as a simple sentence. An independent clause contains a subject and a predicate and makes sense by itself.
Definite description
DENOTING PHRASE IN THE FORM OF "THE X" WHERE X IS A NOUN-PHRASE OR A SINGULAR COMMON NOUN. THE DEFINITE DESCRIPTION IS PROPER IF X APPLIES TO A UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL OR OBJECT
Present King of France; Definite descriptions; Definite descriptor; The present King of France is bald; Iota operator; Definite description theory
In formal semantics and philosophy of language, a definite description is a denoting phrase in the form of "the X" where X is a noun-phrase or a singular common noun. The definite description is proper if X applies to a unique individual or object.
