Annotation

An overview of the various types of information that have to be provided for each lexical item in the lexical component of an adequate grammar. One of these types is information about the presuppositions of a word, i.e. about the conditions that have to be satisfied before the sentence in which it occurs can be used for the performance of a certain speech act.
