| Abstract: | A study of the salient features of ordinary language is necessary for the design of information storage and retrieval systems in general and indexing systems in particular. This paper, based on the works of Nalimov, and Gardin, attempts to discuss some of these salient features. Only the relevant characteristics of ordinary language are mentioned, which are reflected in indexing languages. The important features of indexing language and its meta language character are also mentioned. Common analogical features of both subject analysis and linguistic analysis are presented along with a gauge. Indicators that the Postulate based Permuted Subject Indexing (POPSI) language, together with its vocabulary control tool Classaurus, has also the important components of an indexing language. |
