Verbalizing OWL in Attempto Controlled English

Verbalizing OWL in Attempto Controlled English

Norbert E. Fuchs, Kaarel Kaljurand
We describe a verbalization of the logical content of OWL ontologies — using OWL 1.1 without data-valued properties — in At- tempto Controlled English (ACE). Because ACE is a subset of English, the verbalization makes OWL ontologies accessible to people with no training in formal methods. We conclude that OWL can be verbalized in concise and understandable English provided that a certain naming style is adopted for OWL individuals, classes, and properties.
