Abstract
In this paper it is argued for the use of a type
of notation that allows the incremental expres­
sion of semantic information. A sound incre­
mental semantic annotation must be able to be
extended without deleting any of the previous
annotations in the same text. This way one can
specify the semantic contents of textual informa­
tion according to the resources and time avail­
able. To achieve this sort of incremental exten­
sibility, the use of a flat notation is proposed by
reifying all the predicates and operators in the
(possibly nested) original expression. One such
notation is introduced, and it is shown how the
notation can express semantic information with
