"others" #133

What is the best way to handle "others" meaning 'other people'? This is pretty common: there are 115 matches of "others" in release worksets. From examining a sample, I see two approaches:

1. :mod other

This involves hallucinating a head concept—often person.

Of course if you want to wear a costume that others find offensive it is free speech.

(w / want-01
      :ARG0 (y / you)
      :ARG1 (w2 / wear-01
            :ARG0 y
            :ARG1 (t / thing
                  :ARG2-of (c / costume-01)
                  :ARG0-of (o / offend-01)
                  :ARG1-of (f / find-02
                        :ARG0 (p / person
                              :mod (o2 / other)))))
      :ARG2-of (h / have-condition-91
            :ARG1 (s / speech
                  :ARG1-of (f2 / free-41)))
      :mod (o3 / of-course))

"Others" meaning "other nations":

Ingo Kober stated that some nations had stronger intellectual property rights than others.

(s / state-01
      :ARG0 (p / person :wiki "Ingo_Kober" :name (n / name :op1 "Ingo" :op2 "Kober"))
      :ARG1 (e / entitle-01
            :ARG1 (p2 / property
                  :mod (i / intellectual))
            :ARG2 (n2 / nation
                  :quant (s2 / some))
            :mod (s3 / strong
                  :degree (m / more
                        :compared-to (n3 / nation
                              :mod (o / other))))))

2. just other

Just because you feel passionately about this doesnt automatically mean that others will embrace your opinions.

(m / mean-01 :polarity -
      :ARG0 (f / feel-02
            :ARG0 y
            :ARG1 (t2 / this)
            :manner (p / passionate))
      :ARG1 (e / embrace-01
            :ARG0 (o / other)
            :ARG1 (t / thing
                  :ARG1-of (o2 / opine-01
                        :ARG0 (y / you))))
      :mod (a / automatic)
      :mod (j / just))

Consensus and many other annotators hallucinate. And I agree to do so when the entity type is clear. Would definitely benefit from documentation in the AMR Dictionary.
