Commemorative [entity]

โ€น Back Next โ€บ
This frame describes a particular compounding construction (a pattern of coinage) by which more complex words can be created by joining an Honored_entity to a Dedicated_type to describe a particular Dedicated_entity which has been officially named for the Honored_entity. The Dedicated_type and Honored_entity FEs each form part of the Lexical Units (annotated on the second FE layer), and the Dedicated_entity is the denotation of the whole. Since each of the FEs is a part of the Lexical Unit, there is no assignment of Grammatical Function or Phrase Type. The Dedicated_type should (in principle) also be annotated as a LU in a separate frame. Targets are added opportunistically to this frame in the course of annotating other frames. For example, the Day of Armistice Day should also be annotated in the Calendric_unit frame.
