(2013): “Annotating the Interaction between Modality and Focus: the case of exclusive particles”, Proceedings of the 7th Linguistic Annotation Workshop and Interoperability with Discourse (LAW VII), Association for Computational Linguistics, Sofia, Bulgaria, August 8-9 2013, pp. 228-237.978-1-937284-58-9http://hdl.handle.net/10451/37412We discuss in this paper a proposal to integrate the annotation of contexts with focus-sensitive expressions (namely the Portuguese exclusive adverb só ‘only’) in a modality scheme. We describe some properties of contexts involving both exclusive particles and modal triggers and discuss how to integrate this with an existing annotation scheme implemented for European Portuguese. We present the results of the application of this annotation scheme to a sample of 100 sentences.engconference object
