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 Wikipedia Article URL (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rNv0nbm4TTjOp7yhmnzOyqg" class="cyc_term">wikipediaArticleURL</a> THING URL) means that in <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rtqXA6OC8QdiWC72DuLJdUw" class="cyc_term">Wikipedia_WebSite</a> THING is described by an article located at URL wikipediaArticleURL seeAlsoURI <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4riWVFR6HJSpaEaHrcWS3MSA" class="cyc_term">seeAlsoURI</a> <b>THING</b> <b>URI</b>)</code> means that a description of the resource identified by URI is likely to contain information pertinent to THING. This predicate is roughly equivalent to rdfs:seeAlso. See Also URI ailment condition AilmentCondition The most general collection of ailment events; a subcollection of both <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQw4WZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">PhysiologicalCondition</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4r6e0v8orZQdefvMXViCU3lw" class="cyc_term">DysfunctionalCondition</a>. An instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a> is a dynamic state of sickness, injury, or physiological impairment. The rationale for construing ailments in this way is the obvious fact that to have an ailment is to undergo an event: an individual ailment has temporal features, it progresses dynamically, and so on. It is not just a matter of being in some static state of "unwellness". Subcollections of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a> include <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWPCEpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">RespiratoryAilment</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQr9o5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">HeartCondition</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1qGpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Cancer</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1IRZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">MotionSickness</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwP1e1JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Poisoning</a>, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwvf5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Infection</a>, and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rvWKT6pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">InjuryCondition</a>. If a particular person has an infection, that event is an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a>. An <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwYVpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AilmentCondition</a> does not begin before there is an actual, developed sickness or impairment, and thus does not include the event of getting sick or becoming impaired. Also note that each type of ailment, such as <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/concept/Mx4rwQwvf5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Infection</a>, is the collection of all "cases" or "instances" of individuals suffering from that condition.
