punct: punctuation
This element is used for any piece of punctuation in a clause.
The last punctuation mark of the sentence (usually a full stop or interrogative/exclamation mark) always depends on the root; within the relevant unit, a punctuation mark is attached at the highest possible node that preserves projectivity. In general, tokens with the relation punct always attach to content words (except in cases of ellipsis) and can never have dependents on their own.
Evacuata la Tate Gallery .
punct(Tate, .)
Le è simpatica Nicole Kidman ?
punct(simpatica, ?)
Purché i partiti non si rimettano a litigare ...
punct(rimettano, ...)
A punctuation mark separating coordinated units is attached to the following conjunct.
Proiettavano Dreyer , Bergman , Kazan , De Sica
punct(Bergman, ,-3)
punct(Kazan, ,-5)
punct(De, ,-7)
A punctuation mark preceding or following a dependent unit is attached to that unit.
" Chirac , ricorda ti Hiroshima "
punct(ricorda, "-1)
punct(Chirac, ,)
punct(ricorda, "-7)
Paired punctuation marks (e.g. quotes and brackets, sometimes also dashes, commas and other) should be attached to the same word unless that would create non-projectivity. This word is usually the head of the phrase enclosed in the paired punctuation.
I carri armati , quando si muovevano , andavano a Budapest
punct(muovevano, ,-4)
punct(muovevano, ,-8)
