PartType: type of particle

Values: Cop Disc

We use the PartType feature to distinguish the different roles performed by the particles of Naija.

Cop: copular

The particle is considered copulative when it is used to link a subject with its nonverbal predicate. In Naija, the subject may be omitted.

Example

Note : na is a copulative particle frequently used for focalization, such as in clefts

Disc: discourse

The PartType feature takes this value for discourse particles elements such as sha or o.

Example
