Reference is represented, in UNL, by reference attributes or by the relation "mod", depending on the type of reference.

Reference attributes

Reference attributes are used in case of general reference (normally conveyed by determiners):

Relation mod

The relation "mod" is used to express more specific specifiers:

mod(head, specifier)

Examples

  • the book = book.@def
  • that book = book.@distal
