Here is an RDF example which you can feed to the RDF Validator.

It says, in RDF, "Alice knows someone that has an IQ of 200".

If you didn't know this was RDF, and just looked at the XML, you wouldn't be sure whether the property of having iq=200 was being ascribed to Alice, to the person she knew, or even to the fact of her knowing this person.
