PUNCT: punctuation

Definition

Punctuation marks are non-alphabetical characters and character groups used in many languages to delimit linguistic units in printed text.

Punctuation is not taken to include logograms such as $, %, and §, which are instead tagged as SYM.

The punctuation in the BulTreeBank scheme follows the same principles as in the Universal tagset. Thus, it includes: period, comma, colon, etc.

Examples

The 1st highest number of forms (1) was observed with the lemma “!”: !.

The 2nd highest number of forms (1) was observed with the lemma “””: .

The 3rd highest number of forms (1) was observed with the lemma “(”: (.

PUNCT does not occur with any features.

Relations

PUNCT nodes are attached to their parents using 2 different relations: bg-dep/punct (22075; 99% instances), bg-dep/dobj (171; 1% instances)

Parents of PUNCT nodes belong to 14 different parts of speech: VERB (13782; 62% instances), NOUN (3452; 16% instances), PROPN (2365; 11% instances), ADJ (1234; 6% instances), CONJ (580; 3% instances), ADV (468; 2% instances), PRON (110; 0% instances), INTJ (105; 0% instances), PART (70; 0% instances), NUM (48; 0% instances), DET (24; 0% instances), SCONJ (4; 0% instances), X (3; 0% instances), ADP (1; 0% instances)

22246 (100%) PUNCT nodes are leaves.

The highest child degree of a PUNCT node is 0.
