Skrivesenter:Discourse relations

Overall Motivation
The overall motivation is to create a richly annotated discourse corpus facilitating the analysis of student texts within writing research.
The main perspective taken is that of discourse analysis. Linguistic analysis is helpful, but not our main goal.
A student text is understood as a written discourse, and it is its discourse structure that we will be annotating.
So far we have identified only a couple of Lexically-grounded discourse relations, Anchors and Discourse chains.
Lexical-grounded discourse relations we have listed in the sortable table below:
| Sense | Grammatical category | Connectative |
|---|---|---|
| condition | adverb | hvis |
| condition | conjunction | når |
| goal | conjunction | for å |
| sequence/temporal | conjunction | og[1] |
| list | conjunction | og |
| precedence | adverb | etterpå |
| specification | expression | for example |
| supplement | adverb | alias |
| disjunction | conjunction | eller[1] |
| temporal | conjunction | når |
