Information About

Gellish English




Gellish English uses a numeric natural language independent identifier for every concept, which has as a feature that a computer can automatically translate Gellish English expressions to any other Gellish variant for which a Gellish dictionary is available.

Gellish is intended for the expression of complete and unambiguous specifications of products, facilities and processes, suitable to specify, buy, fabricate, install, operate and maintain such objects and to exchange such information in a system independent and computer interpretable way.

Gellish English has an object-relation-object structure and therefore it includes a large number of standard relation types, which define a semantically rich expression capability. The Gellish English Dictionary is extended with a Knowledge Base with basic engineering knowledge. That knowledge base is itself expressed in Gellish English. The dictionary with definitions of the concepts in Gellish English can be used for various purposes. For example as standard terminology to harmonize data in various computer systems, for selection of classes for Classification or as a basis for searching information with a Search Engine .

Gellish English is typically expressed in the form of a Gellish Table.
A Gellish Table is a standard table that is suitable to represent any expression in the Gellish language. Its table columns are standardised. The table can be used as a database or as an exchange file.
A Gellish Table can be implemented in any tabular format. For example, it can be implemented as a database table, as a STEPfile (according to ISO 10303-21), or as a simple spreadsheet table.
Gellish English is documented in the Gellish knowledge base, called STEPlib. STEPlib itself is also expressed as a Gellish Table.
