feature for "children's language" #633

Open eduarddrenth opened 5 years ago

eduarddrenth commented 5 years ago

Dear all,

Would it be an idea to introduce a lexical feature denoting that a word is "children's language". I am thinking of a boolean feature "Childslang".

Regards, Eduard

Or a new value of the Style feature.

I think it is preferable if this can be handled with an existing feature, rather than adding a new one. The focus on UD is morphosyntax, so we don't want a proliferation of features encoding other properties of language.

This woud correspond somewhat to how TEI defines this in register or reg, see https://tei-c.org/release/doc/tei-p5-doc/en/html/DI.html#DITPUS
