In this work, we consider an autonomous robot that is required
to understand commands given by a human through natural language.
Specifically, we assume that this robot is provided with an internal
representation of the environment. However, such a representation is unknown
to the user. In this context, we address the problem of allowing a
human to understand the robot internal representation through dialog.
To this end, we introduce the concept of sensing descriptors. Such representations
are used by the robot to recognize unknown object properties
in the given commands and warn the user about them. Additionally, we
show how these properties can be learned over time by leveraging past
interactions in order to enhance the grounding capabilities of the robot
