First-order collection predicates are used to make statements about first-order collections or types, primarily in order to say something about their instances. They generally provide a simpler way of stating what could be stated (albeit less tersely) without the use of collection-predicates (viz. by referring more directly to the instances themselves). More precisely: each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVip5JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">FirstOrderCollectionPredicate</a> is a predicate at least one of whose relata is always a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rHIBS0h_TEdaAAABQ2rksLw" class="cyc_term">FirstOrderCollection</a> (q.v.). Such predicates are typically used to make ground-atomic sentences (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvcyGiZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">CycLClosedAtomicSentence</a>) that are in principle equivalent to certain quantified sentences that involve no set-or-collection-predicates. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rv_Uc5pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">argIsaForType</a> is a "type-level" correlate of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvuItPZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">argIsa</a> that enables one to place a particular argument-type constraint on every instance of a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjatpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">RelationshipType</a> in one fell-swoop. Thus, a ground-atomic sentence <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rv_Uc5pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">argIsaForType</a> RELNTYPE ARGNUM COL)</code> is equivalent to the quantified sentence <pre> (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViA95wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">forAll</a> ?RELN (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViA-JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">implies</a> (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViBBJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">isa</a> ?RELN RELNTYPE) (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvuItPZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">argIsa</a> ?RELN ARGNUM COL))) . </pre> FirstOrderCollectionPredicate type predicate 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 Organization An Organization is a company, corporation, firm, or institution that has its own functions and administration. organization makesProductType The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVkAz5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">makesProductType</a> is used to indicate that a particular company makes a specific (i.e., type of) product.
