This collection was originally created to enable the following sorts of natural language interpretations. Anyone who is said to `ride' such an object is most likely to be the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVi_RZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">driverActor</a>. If someone `rides' a non <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwOy_T5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MountableTransporter</a> (e.g. a train) is most likely not a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVi_RZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">driverActor</a> but a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViM4pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">passengers</a>. Positive exemplars include horses, jet skis, motorcycles, bicycles. Negative exemplars include cars, trains, planes. A borderline positive example is a skateboard. When one `rides' a skateboard one is most likely the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVi_RZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">driverActor</a>, but, unlike typical <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwOy_T5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MountableTransporter</a>s, one is also most likely not sitting. MountableTransporter Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> TERM STRING) means that STRING is the English word or expression (sequence of words) commonly used to refer to TERM. The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString Segway the Segway The collection of vehicles (self-powered <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjVQJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">TransportationDevice</a>s) which are designed to carry a single passenger. Some <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rIPgPTBIAQdeWHO3D4xXIPg" class="cyc_term">SinglePassengerTransportationDevice</a>s, such as <font color="#ff0000">#$SkateBoards</font> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwQCMfZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MountainBike</a>s, are not specs of this class because they are not self-powered. single-passenger vehicle SinglePassengerTransportationVehicle ManufacturedGoods product The collection of all <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVkH_ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Artifact</a>s that are made or processed in large-scale industrial operations for distribution (normally sale) to agents outside the manufacturing organization. This includes manufactured stuff, e.g. Finlandia vodka; refined ore, e.g. iron; otherwise procesed natural material, e.g. cut diamonds, as well as manufactured objects. This collection excludes handicrafts; privately made stuff, e.g. moonshine; and other artifacts produced by one or a few people on a small scale. product type The collection of all types of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVj27ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">PartiallyTangible</a> things that are usually/frequently commercially manufactured.
