Foreign: is this a foreign word?
Boolean feature. Is this a foreign word? Not a loan word but a genuinely foreign word appearing inside native text, e.g. inside direct speech, titles of books etc.
Note that Czech data (especially those from the PDT) often indicate the original part of speech of foreign words. Thus this feature may occur with any POS tag. If the original part of speech is not known, the feature will accompany the cs-pos/X tag.
Foreign: it is foreign
Examples
- … nese jméno VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word – velmi dlouhé instrukční slovo)
Fscript: it is foreign and written in a foreign script
Examples
- V nepálštině se hora jmenuje सगरमाथा. “In Nepali, the mountain is called सगरमाथा.”
Tscript: it is foreign and transcribed from a foreign script
Examples
- Výše uvedené nepálské slovo lze přepsat jako Sagaramāthā. “The above Nepali word can be transcribed Sagaramāthā.”
Diffs
Prague Dependency Treebank
PDT does not contain words in foreign scripts (what it does contain are foreign letters based on
the Latin script), and transcriptions from foreign scripts are not explicitly marked, hence the
values Fscript and Tscript do not appear in the converted PDT data.
For proper nouns the borderline between foreign words and loan words is somewhat fuzzy, so e.g. the English personal name George is marked as foreign even though it would not normally be translated (except for names of rulers and saints, which would become Jiří).
Articles in foreign names (the, die, le) are tagged cs-pos/ADJ, not cs-pos/DET.
