Abstract: We introduce the Schubert form a 3-bridge link diagram, as a generalization of the Schubert normal form of a 3-bridge link. It consists of a set of six positive integers, written as left(p/n,q/m,s/light), with some conditions and it is based on the concept of 3-butterfly. Using the Schubert normal form of a 3-bridge link diagram, we give two presentations of the 3-bridge link group. These presentations are given by concrete formulas that depend on the integers leftp,n,q,m,s,light. The construction is a generalization of the form the link group presentation of the 2-bridge link p/q depends on the integers p and q.
