This article describes the concepts and the contents of Verbmobil Interface Terms (VITs). In VITs all linguistic information of an utterance relevant for translation is represented.

The fields are variable-free lists of non-recursive terms, so-called "flat" set representations. They are filled with semantic, scopal, sortal, morpho-syntactic, prosodic, and discourse information.
