In this notation, is a vocabulary of discrete symbols—most commonly words—in a (natural) language.
* is a sequence of symbols of an arbitrary length. We use to denote a smaller vocabulary of labels, to
denote a constrained set of discrete structures (e.g., trees or directed graphs), and to denote a vocabulary
possibly in another natural language.
