`SCONJ`: subordinating conjunction

Definition

A subordinating conjunction is a conjunction that links constructions by making one of them a constituent of the other. The subordinating conjunction typically marks the incorporated constituent which has the status of a (subordinate) clause.

For coordinating conjunctions, see CONJ.

In the BulTreeBank annotation scheme, our tag Cs is mapped to the universal one SCONJ. According to our scheme the multiword subordinate conjunctions are also labeled as Cs. So, such cases are excluded here and analysed compositionally, as recommended in the universal tagset.

Examples

ако / ako “if”
щом / shtom “as soon as”
докато / dokato “while”
