Broader concept

Example

  • Also other subordination types than 'PP' may benefit from similar knowledge; e.g. in many German sentences the roles of subject and object are syntactically ambiguous and can only be understood correctly through world knowledge. (Foth & Menzel, 2006)
  • First we may hypothesize that subordination is determined on structural grounds in which case it is likely that languages may arbitrarily characterize their set of subordinate conjunctions. (Miltsakaki, 2002)
  • If subordination was to be defined on semantic grounds then we should not expect focusing differences between the two languages but in fact we do. (Miltsakaki, 2002)
  • In the dependency treebank subordinations and coordinations are handled very similarly. (Simkó, Vincze, Szántó & Farkas, 2014)
  • Prepositions allow subordination to many different attachment sites and the choice between them is influenced by factors from many different linguistic levels which are generally subject to preferential rather than rigorous regularities. (Foth & Menzel, 2006)
