PRON: pronoun

Definition

Pronouns are words that substitute for nouns or noun phrases, whose meaning is recoverable from the linguistic or extralinguistic context.

Pronouns under this definition function like nouns. Note that Czech grammar traditionally extends the term pronoun to words that substitute for adjectives. Such words are not tagged PRON under our universal scheme. They are tagged as determiners in order to annotate the same thing same way across languages.

For instance, tohle  “this” is traditionally called pronoun in Czech grammar, regardless of context (the notion of determiners does not exist in Czech grammar). To make the annotation parallel across languages, it should be now tagged PRON in Tohle jsem viděl včera.  “I saw this yesterday.” and DET in Tohle auto jsem viděl včera.  “I saw this car yesterday.”
