5 Conclusions
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> We have presented a comparison of a purely domain-action-based interlingua (the C-star II interlingua) and a more expressive, but still domain-action-based interlingua (the Nespole interlingua). The data that we have presented show that the more expressive interlingua has better coverage of the domain (a decrease from 7.3% to 2.4% uncovered data in the C-star II domain) and can also scale up to larger domains without an explosion of domain actions. Thus we have a reasonable compromise between simplicity and expressiveness of the interlingua.</Paragraph>
