This project builds on a program developed during the Interactive Intelligent Systems workshop. At the start the program could interpret the sentence pickup the big red block in terms of actions within a database of things that are held and things that are on one another, if that sentence were passed as a list using prolog syntax. The final project can deal with the more complex sentence put it in the box where "it" is whatever is held. The program also works with natural language syntax instead of prolog syntax. Several additional types of objects were established including pyramids, which have the unique property that while they can be place on things, things cannot be place on them. A box was created which has the ability to hold up to two object. A lecturer was created who can interact with the blocks and the pyramids. The two additional adjectives yellow and prolog were defined. Two prepositions were defined, on and in which have distinct rules governing their use. Objects can be on a table or on another block but can only be in a box. Finally a pronoun it was defined that refers to whatever was currently held and include a predicate to test if something is held or not. Appropriate semantic and grammar rules were defined for each of these new features.
