To quote your web page:

# vocabulary).

I suppose that lack of vocabulary will always be a problem in knowledge 
representation systems, until someone develops AGI or a way to extract a 
suitable dictionary from a text corpus.

Also, it would be interesting to hear if you have any thoughts about how 
to create place structures with valencies higher than 1 in Loglish.
