1. A computer system comprising: a processing unit operatively coupled to memory; an artificial intelligence platform, in communication with the processing unit; a knowledge engine in communication with the processing unit to decipher a phrase upon activation by the artificial intelligence platform, including: parse a phrase into subcomponents; identify a category for each parsed subcomponent and a syntactic structure of the phrase; generate a list of definitions for each parsed subcomponent, the list corresponding to the identified category; rank the definitions in the list according to relevance; identify an outcome base on ranked relevancy, the outcome being a definition with the highest relevance in the list; search a corpus for evidence of a pattern associated with the list; score each definition in the list according to a weighted calculation based on congruence of corpus evidence with the pattern; and generate an outcome from the definition list, wherein the outcome is a definition with a strongest congruence to the pattern.
