The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/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 Arboretum The collection of instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwUIIjpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">BotanicalGarden</a> that are devoted to the preservation and study of trees. arboretum botanical garden BotanicalGarden The collection of all botanical gardens.

The collection <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwUIIjpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">BotanicalGarden</a> is an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4roOCJgqgyQdePhq6ip3adDw" class="cyc_term">ArtifactTypeByFunction</a>, a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rpPHhAOB1EdqAAAACs6hRXg" class="cyc_term">SpatiallyDisjointObjectType</a>, and an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4ru-8ymLHtEdmAAAACs6hO_g" class="cyc_term">ArtifactualFeatureType</a>. A collection of collections; a subcollection of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rejmDbrF_QdeIENT1qpbYzQ" class="cyc_term">ArtifactTypeByGenericCategory</a>. Instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4roOCJgqgyQdePhq6ip3adDw" class="cyc_term">ArtifactTypeByFunction</a> are mutually unique with respect to the full set of the primary intended uses of their instances. Examples include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVkKypwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">DessertFood</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjfFJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Sofa_PieceOfFurniture</a>. Counter-examples include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwKTkJpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">FountainPen</a> (which has the same primary function as its genls, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViISpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">WritingPen</a>) and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjQHZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">FurniturePiece</a> (specs of which have different primary uses). There may be cases where two instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4roOCJgqgyQdePhq6ip3adDw" class="cyc_term">ArtifactTypeByFunction</a> (PROD1 and PROD2) are related by (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViBDpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">genls</a> PROD1 PROD2); but this will only happen in cases where instances of PROD1 have some additional primary function(s) to those of PROD2. For example, the collections <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjfFJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Sofa_PieceOfFurniture</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjGZZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SofaBed</a> are both instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4roOCJgqgyQdePhq6ip3adDw" class="cyc_term">ArtifactTypeByFunction</a>, and (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvViBDpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">genls</a> <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjGZZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SofaBed</a> <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvVjfFJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Sofa_PieceOfFurniture</a>) is true.
