Some formal representation issues underlying the use of incomplete knowledge bases are discussed. An incomplete knowledge base is one that has only partial knowledge of the application domain. It is argued that a language that can refer to both the application domain and to the state of the knowledge base is required to specify and to question an incomplete knowledge base. A formal logical language with this expressive ability is presented and its semantics and proof theory are defined. It is also shown how different the use of the language must be, depending on whether the interaction involves querying or defining the knowledge base.
