discourse:filler: filler sound in spoken data

The discourse:filler subtype of the discourse relation is used in spoken data for sounds that have no syntactic or semantic function (they correspond to a pause rather than a real word). The filler is attached to the head of the phrase in which it occurs.

Yo le suelo decir a mi hermano : Joe , cuidao , eh . \n I him use-to say to my brother : Joe , careful , eh .
discourse:filler(cuidao, eh-13)

discourse:filler in other languages: [es] [no] [sl]
