PUNCT: punctuation

Definition

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

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

Prague Dependency Treebank

The PDT texts are from the early 1990s and there are no e-mail addresses. If they were there, the PDT tokenization rules would break them up on all dots and at signs. The same holds for telephone numbers. For example, tel.: (05) 4321 6014  is analyzed as eight tokens (NOUN PUNCT PUNCT PUNCT NUM PUNCT NUM NUM).
