This paper describes a method for semantic analysis of natural language queries for Natural Language Interface to Database (NLIDB) using domain ontology. Implementation of NLIDB for serious applications like railway inquiry, airway inquiry, corporate or government call centers requires higher precision. This can be achieved by increasing role of language knowledge and domain knowledge at semantic level. Also design of semantic analy zer should be such that it can easily be ported for other do

Intermediate result of the system is evaluated for a corpus of natural language queries collected fro m casual users who were not involved in the system design. detail. The implemented system is then evaluated and result is algorith m is widely adopted in real engineering given in section VI. Finally section VII contains conclusion and future scope.
