FRAU (FRAmework of reference for UNL) is a guideline used to describe achievements of natural languages in relation to the UNL. It was inspired by the [http://www.coe.int/t/dg4/linguistic/CADRE_EN.asp Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)], and its main goal is to provide a method for assessing the availability and quality of natural language resources inside the UNL framework.

== Reference Levels ==
FRAU divides languages into three broad divisions which can be divided into six levels:
*A Basic Level
**A1 Breakthrough or beginner
**A2 Waystage or elementary
*B Intermediate Level
**B1 Threshold or intermediate
**B2 Vantage or upper intermediate
*C Advanced Level
**C1 Effective Operational
**C2 Mastery

== Descriptors ==
The descriptors below inform the resources required for a language to be classified in each level:
