specifies that the file is a div-based TAN alignment file. Root element. TAN-A-div files must have one or more sources definitions by default have ids TAN-A-div sources must be named Redefining TAN-body-core not only defines what is in the body of a TAN-A-div but also excludes groups from it. refers to a work by means of a source ID as a proxy. The attribute will be treated as indicating all sources that share the same work as the one mentioned. If you wish to avoid making a claim applying to all other versions of a work, use @src instead. contains an IRI + name pattern identifying a spatial location, usually somewhere on earth contains an IRI + name pattern identifying a text-bearing object. declares one or more topics, to be used in conjunction with @topic under <align> to associate alignments with specific topics instead of verbatim parallels. contains an IRI + name pattern identifying a property, relationship, action, or something else that is used to say something about something. The preferred term "verb" is equivalent to RDF "predicate." The latter term is avoided as misleading, since in ordinary usage the term "predicate" implies everything in a sentence that is not the subject. contains an IRI + name pattern identifying a unit type (e.g., millimeters, seconds, Euros), to be used in conjunction with <object> to specify the meaning of a value contains an IRI + name pattern identifying a modal or adverb that qualifies the verb of an assertion. See main.xml# keywords-modal for standard vocabulary. makes one or more claims. points to an <agent> or <person> who makes a claim. @claimant within <body> indicates the default persons to be credited or blamed for an assertion. Claimants are not to be confused with the editor of a TAN file. If an editor X writes a TAN-c file that says that person Y makes such-and-such a claim, then the implication is that X claims that Y claims that.... This attribute is taken into account before all other attributes. That is, @claimant is to be interpreted to mean: "@claimant states the following:...." Multiple values of @claimant are interpreted to mean "and", resulting in distribution of the claim (e.g., claimant="x y" becomes "x claims that..." and "y claims that..."). If you wish to claim that claimant X claimed that claimant Y claimed that claimant Z...., only the original claimant is given to @claimant, and each of the other claimants are placed in a @subject in an embedded <claim> that serves as the object of the master <claim>. This attribute is inheritable. See main.xml#inheritable_attributes points to one or more ID refs of entities defined in <head> that serve as the grammatical subject of a claim. @subject within <body> indicates the default subject(s) for <claim>s. Multiple values of @subject are interpreted to mean "and", resulting in distribution of the claim (e.g., subject="x y" becomes "x [verby]..." and "y [verb]..."). points to text references that act as the subject of the claim. Multiple values of <subject> are interpreted to mean "and", resulting in distribution of the claim (e.g., subject="x y" becomes "x [verby]..." and "y [verb]..."). names a <modal> that qualifies the claim. Multiple values of @adverb are interpreted to mean "and" with intersection. No distribution takes place (e.g., adverb="x y" means "[subject] x & y [verby]...", not "[subject] x [verb]..." and "[subject] y [verb]..."). points to one or more <verb>s that serve to assert something of the @subject. The preferred term "verb" is equivalent to RDF "predicate." The latter term is avoided as being misleading -- most who use TAN will understand "predicate," grammatically speaking, to refer to everything in a sentence that is not the subject. Multiple values of @verb are interpreted to mean "and", resulting in distribution of the claim (e.g., verb="x y" becomes "[subject] x ..." and "[subject] y..."). restricts the <claim> to a specific <place>. Multiple values of @where are interpreted to mean "or" with union. No distribution takes place (e.g., where="x y" means "[subject] x or y [verby]...", not "[subject] x [verb]..." and "[subject] y [verb]..."). takes one or more ID refs of entities defined in <head> that serve as the grammatical object of a claim. For example, if you wish to say that work A is a commentary on work B, then the object would have the ID ref for work B. If you wish to make more complex assertions, use <object>. Multiple values of @object are interpreted to mean "and", resulting in distribution of the claim (e.g., object="x y" becomes "[subject] [verb] x" and "[subject] [verb] y..."). In RDF, the concept of object (the third element of a triple) is required. In TAN-c, it is not required, since some <verb>s may be intransitive (e.g., "Charlie slept."). is similar to @object, but for complex content, mainly concepts that do not lend themselves to the IRI + name pattern, particularly languages and units or passages of text. points to the ID ref of a <unit>, defining the type of units. restricts a claim to a particular location within a scriptum or work. This element functions much like <place>, but the geography is textual rather than spatial.
