parataxis:restart: loosely connected clause because of restart

The parataxis:restart subtype of the parataxis relation is used in spoken data for clauses or clausal fragments that are not syntactically well connected to the previous clause because the speaker has changed their intended verbalization and started talking about something else.

The new (restarted) clause is attached as a dependent of the earlier, abandoned clause. Given that the first sentence can be abandoned at any point, the head of the parataxis:restart relation is often a syntactically incomplete clause.
