Abstract

Language is basically the system used by humans for communication and covers a wide range of their activities. It is a social phenomenon resulting in an evolving system of great complexity. Language is inextricably linked to knowledge communication and representation, and is viewed here as a complex reality to be mathematically represented step by step, in a incremental fashion.
