contents In this work, we introduce a new notion for representing graph classes with formal languages. In contrast to the seminal work by Kitaev and Pyatkin to represent graphs by words, we use formal binary languages in order to have a set of patterns (given by the languages' words) defining the edges in the graph. In particular, we investigate famous languages like the palindromes, copy-words, Lyndon words, and Dyck words to represent all graphs or specific graph classes by restricting these languages.
