Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer program products for translating structured languages to natural language using domain-specific ontology are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes determining similarities among multiple natural language query interpretations derived from an input query, determining differences among the multiple natural language query interpretations, and generating natural language descriptions of each of the multiple natural language query interpretations based on analysis of the determined similarities, the determined differences, and the input query. The method also includes producing, for each of the natural language query interpretations, a natural language string that represents one or more unambiguous interpretations of the input query, wherein the producing comprises consolidating the generated natural language descriptions. Further, the method includes outputting each of the produced natural language strings to a user.
