  natural language
       
           A language spoken or written by humans, as
          opposed to a language use to program or communicate with
          computers.  Natural language understanding is one of the
          hardest problems of artificial intelligence due to the
          complexity, irregularity and diversity of human language and
          the philosophical problems of meaning.
