SYM: symbol

The English SYM covers PTB tags NFP (except for lines of separators, which become PUNCT), #, $, SYM, and for the percent sign (%).


Treebank Statistics (UD_English)

There are 81 SYM lemmas (0%), 81 SYM types (0%) and 697 SYM tokens (0%). Out of 17 observed tags, the rank of SYM is: 12 in number of lemmas, 12 in number of types and 17 in number of tokens.
