DCG stands for Definite Clause Grammar. It is a grammar formalism used in the field of computational linguistics and natural language processing.

DCG is a way to define grammars for natural languages in Prolog, a logic programming language. It provides a declarative way to define rules and constraints that describe the structure and syntactic properties of sentences in a language. The rules are represented as definite clauses, which consist of a head and a body. The head specifies the grammatical category or structure, and the body lists the constituents or constraints that must be satisfied for the head to be true.

DCG rules can be used to parse sentences, generate sentences, or perform various linguistic analysis tasks. They provide a powerful tool for representing and manipulating the syntax of natural languages.
