punct: punctuation

This is used for any piece of punctuation in a clause, regardless of its function. The punctuation mark is attached to the head of the phrase or clause to which it belongs unless this introduces a non-projective dependency. More discussion on punctuation can be found on the universal dependency page (punct).

Example

Tá an méid sin suimiúil a d’ inis tú dom , a dúirt sé . What you have told me is interesting , he said to me.

NOTE: Punctuation included in embedded clauses are are dependent on the head of the noun phrase in which they occur. See the examples below.

Éireoidh beirt chomhalta den Bhord ( seachas an cathaoirleach agus an príomhoifigeach feidhmiúcháin ) as oifig . Two members of the Board (apart from the chairperson and the chief executive officer) will resign.

Ach meastar gur ar chroí-lár thaca Ian Paisley - an Baile Meánach - a bhronnfar an gradam ‘But it is thought that the award will go to the heartland of Ian Paisley’s support - Ballymena’
