> If a language is understandable, analyzable, executable, expressible by humans, computers most probably can process it (this is a claim, not a fact). In English, a sentence[1] is "a set of words that is complete in itself, typically containing a subject and predicate, conveying a statement, question, exclamation, or command, ...". In Turkish, sometimes you need a paragraph, sometimes you need a page, and sometimes you need the whole story to provide "a set of words that is complete in itself". Try these for size[2,3]. I especially love the translations of the word "tane". Or "say" here[4]. I am going to stop before I keel over. Sure, you can try to codify a rule for each and every "set of words that is complete in itself", but I doubt that set is finite. The way things are going I full expect to see people being required to use Turkish in a way computers can understand before computers can deal with Turkish.
