ILOG JRules User Guide > Creating Rule Projects > Concepts > Vocabulary > Verbalization

When you create a BOM entry, you can choose to verbalize the business elements to create a vocabulary by default. A default verbalization is then applied to all attributes, getters, setters, and static references in the BOM entry. You can choose to create a code-like verbalization of all other methods by selecting the option All Methods in the New BOM Entry or Verbalize BOM wizards.

Only business rule artifacts use the vocabulary. If you do not verbalize a business element, that element will not be visible from business rule artifacts.

Vocabulary

You can localize the vocabulary, and use several vocabularies in different languages on top of the same business object model.
