Interlingua: a-state-of-the-art overview

Abstract

An Interlingua is any artificial or semi-natural language, with main features like precision, neutrality, non-ambiguity and some kind of formalism to express communicative ideas. These features have converted interlinguas in useful tools for solving problems in areas like machine translation, natural language processing, and artificial intelligence. In this paper, we make an Interlingua overview, which include concepts, applications, and developed projects about it. We hope this will be the starting point of new project development around this issue
