Each element is an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/PersonTypeByActivity" class="cyc_term">PersonTypeByActivity</a> that itself has been faceted in at least one way. This collection, which facets <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/Person" class="cyc_term">Person</a>,can be used to generate English questions to aid classification in a clarification dialogue. To make the interface user-friendly, the range of answers to these questions should be small. Since this collection currently (01/00) has fewer than 20 elements, it will be more useful than the faceting of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/Person" class="cyc_term">Person</a> by <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/PersonTypeByActivity" class="cyc_term">PersonTypeByActivity</a>, which has over 800 instances.

Employee BT <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/broaderTerm" class="cyc_term">broaderTerm</a> TERM1 TERM2)</code> means that <code>TERM2</code> is broader than <code>TERM1</code>, in an extremely general sense of "broader". For example, <code>TERM2</code> is, in the relevant sense, broader than <code>TERM1</code> if any of the following hold: <code>TERM2</code> is a collection that subsumes <code>TERM1</code>; <code>TERM2</code> is a collection that has <code>TERM1</code> as an instance; <code>TERM2</code> is a collection, instances of which have instances of the collection <code>TERM1</code> as parts; <code>TERM2</code> has <code>TERM1</code> as a part; This list of reasons for why <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/broaderTerm" class="cyc_term">broaderTerm</a> TERM1 TERM2)</code> could hold is not exhaustive, but it should give a good indication of how general the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/broaderTerm" class="cyc_term">broaderTerm</a> relation actually is. broaderTerm employee A subcollection of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/PersonWithOccupation" class="cyc_term">PersonWithOccupation</a>.

Employee affiliate (SubcollectionOfWithRelationToTypeFn Agent-Generic affiliatedWith Agent-Generic) worker The collection of persons who have a (skilled or unskilled) occupation. Most (but not all) instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/PersonWithOccupation" class="cyc_term">PersonWithOccupation</a> spend a significant part of their waking hours doing activities that are characteristic of their occupations. Typically their actions are performed for pay (but not always: consider a "starving artist" who is unable to sell any of her works). Note that a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/PersonWithOccupation" class="cyc_term">PersonWithOccupation</a> need not be working over the entire duration of when s/he has an occupation; e.g. college professors on summer break and the temporarily unemployed still have occupations. Most reified specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/PersonWithOccupation" class="cyc_term">PersonWithOccupation</a> classify workers according to their job titles, the kinds of work they perform, or the skills involved; while a few exploit other (usually quite broad) features of their working lives (e.g. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/SelfEmployedWorker" class="cyc_term">SelfEmployedWorker</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/DeskWorker" class="cyc_term">DeskWorker</a>). But note that many collections corresponding to what are colloquially considered professions or occupations (e.g. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/Lifeguard" class="cyc_term">Lifeguard</a>, #$StockBroker, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/Housekeeper" class="cyc_term">Housekeeper</a>, and many others) are _not_ specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/PersonWithOccupation" class="cyc_term">PersonWithOccupation</a>, as those collections include people for whom the work in question is not their occupation. PersonWithOccupation prettyString (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/en/prettyString" 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/en/prettyString" 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. Pretty String
