Semat (Software Engineering Method and Theory) is an initiative that allows representing common practices of existing methodologies by its core elements, which are described in terms of a language. This language has a graphical and a textual syntax. The textual syntax is described using meta-language EBNF (Extended Backus-Naur Form), which is used as context-free grammar notation to describe a formal language. However, the textual syntax of core elements in some cases is inconsistent with the graphical syntax. Therefore, in this paper we propose a modification of textual language by parsing the language of Semat in order to achieve a consistent relationship between textual and graphical syntax of the core elements of Semat.
