Is it possible that the inherent context dependent ambiguities of human language make knowledge-based inference so difficult since most current knowledge is stored in human language ?

tangential question: is there a standard language for "knowledge", like how we describe math for "computation" ?

Are a part of our brains essentially compilers from human language to an internal definition of "knowledge" that leads to consciousness ?

Attempto Controlled English[1] is a cool project: it's a formal language, but a subset of ordinary English.

My own Hode, described in an earlier comment[2], makes it easy for anyone who speaks some natural language to enter and query arbitrary structured data.
