How to fix this error?

For example, in a constraint you have defined a name for an variable
linked to an object and/or a characteristic. This name is a reserved
name, for example:
DESK IS_A ... WHERE SIN = ..
Certain names are reserved - for example, SIN for the standard function
for sines.
Rename the variable. You could do this by putting a query in front of
the name, for example:
?DESK IS_A ... WHERE ?SIN = ..
