discourse: discourse element
This is used for interjections and other discourse particles and
elements (which are not clearly linked to the structure of the
sentence, except in an expressive way). In English, for example, this includes:
interjections (oh, uh-huh, Welcome), fillers (um, ah),
and non-adverbial discourse markers (well, like, but not you know or actually).
We also use discourse for list enumerators (e.g. 1., (a) marking an item in a sequence).
(Bullets, by contrast, are considered punctuation and attach as punct.)
These discourse elements are attached to the head of the most relevant nearby unit, often a clause.
