Information Structuring in Natural Language Communication: Syntax versus Semantic

The paper introduces an approach to natural language processing based on perceiving natural language as a tool of human communication, tool describing subjects of this communication. This approach reveals parallel syntactic and semantic attempts to natural language processing. Both attempts are reflected in the paradigms of information granulation and granular computing. Duality of granular spaces derived from syntax and semantic of natural language statements is considered. The directions for future research are outlined
