conj main rel

In SUD, the basic conj relation is used with three different subtypes:

• conj:coord for elements connected by a coordinating conjunction (parallel to conj in UD)
• conj:appos for appositional modifiers that serve to define better the previous noun (parallel to appos in UD)
• conj:reform for a reformulation: the first part is a complete utterance and the second part is a reformulation of the first (often, with more precisions). In UD the relation conj:reform is kept.

These three relations work as paradigmatic lists. That’s why in SUD, we decided to gather these three relations under the main relation conj to underline the similarity between the three.

In the three cases, the relation relates the first conjunct to the second one, the conjunction itself upos=CCONJ is attached to the second conjunct with the relation cc.

Warning

Previously, the relation conj:dicto was used both for reformulation ans for disluencies. conj:dicto is now deprecated and should be replaced by conj:reform for reformulations and byreparandum for disfluencies.
