Coordination #
Chained conjuncts #
In UD, all conjuncts of a coordination are attached to the head of the first conjunct in a bouquet. In SUD, each conjunct is attached to the head of the previous one in a chain.
The first example below shows the annotation of a coordination in UD and the second one the corresponding annotation in SUD.

pattern { GOV-[conj:coord]->DEP } % or pattern {GOV-[conj]->DEP }
Embedded coordination #
The conjunct of a coordination can itself be a coordination. Theoretically, this embedding can be nested indefinitely. In natural corpora, however, there is typically only one level of iteration.
The conj label does not make a distinction between embedded relations and surface relations because they form a single chain. However, these relations can be distinguished with the use of the extension @emb for embedded coordinations, as the following example shows.
English
pattern { GOV-[conj:coord@emb]->DEP } % or GOV-[conj@emb->DEP
Shared dependents #
Left dependents on coordination are attached to the head of the coordination. Since the head of a coordination is the head of the leftmost conjunct, it is not possible to distinguish these dependents from the own dependents of the leftmost conjunct.
Right dependents on a coordination are attached to the head of the rightmost conjunct, but they can be confused with the own dependents of this conjunct.
As a consequence, left and right dependents on a coordination are marked with feature Shared=Yes, which distinguishes them from the own dependents of the respective leftmost and rightmost conjuncts.
pattern { N1 [Shared=Yes] ; N1-[conj]->N2 } % or pattern { N1 [Shared=Yes] ; N1-[conj:coord]->N2 }## test
