Abstract
Mainly focused on solving abstraction problems, programming paradigms limit language expressiveness, thus leaving unexplored natural language descriptions that are implicitly expressive. Several authors have developed tools for programming with a natural language subset limited to specific domains to deal with the ambiguity occurring with artificial intelligence technique use. This article presents a review of tools and languages with naturalistic features and highlights the problems that authors have resolved and those they have not addressed, going on to discuss the fact that a “naturalistic” language based on a well-defined model is not reported.
