query language

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Acronyms, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.04 sec.

A generalized language that allows a user to select records from a database. It uses a command language, menu-driven method or a query by example (QBE) format for expressing the matching condition.

Query languages are usually included in DBMSs, and stand-alone packages are available for interrogating files in non-DBMS applications. See query program.
