This document establishes a framework for the representation of annotations of word-sized units in texts. Such annotations describe tokens, their relationship with lexical units (word-forms), and the relevant morphosyntactic properties. This document proposes a metamodel for morphosyntactic annotation that can be augmented with references to data categories contained in a data category repository conforming to ISO 12620-2. It also defines an XML serialization for morphosyntactic annotations, according to the principles laid out in the TEI Guidelines (see Reference [ REFReference_ref_33 \r \h 31 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B0200000008000000110000005200650066006500720065006E00630065005F007200650066005F00330033000000]).This document does not apply to structural ambiguities or the structure and composition of morphosyntactic tagsets.This document does not address the linguistic choices that identify tokens or determine the language- or context-particular relationships between tokens and word-forms.
