Sentences

Sentences occur in a larger textual context. We identify the place of a sentence in this context with a CTS URN citing a range of tokens at the token level.

In ancient Greek, sentences are normally explicitly related to each through the use of a coordinating conjunction or particle. We explicitly identify the syntactic coordination of a sentence with its context with either a CTS URN at the token level identifying the coordinating conjunction or particle, or the value nothing. The value nothing explicitly indicates asyndeton, the syntactically unmarked connection of a sentence to its context.

The further structure of a sentence is organized as a series of one or more verbal units. At least one verbal unit is of the type independent clause. Read more information about the structure of verbal units.
